Blue corn was a staple for the Pueblo Indians of Northern New Mexico. The blue-purple kernels produce a coarser consistency and sweeter, nuttier taste than yellow or white corn. This bread rises high and proud. This recipe was printed on the package of blue-corn meal I recently purchased.
Ingredients:
1 cup blue cornmeal
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
1 tablespoon honey or 1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 egg, beaten
1/3 cup nonfat dry milk powder
2/3 cup water
1 tablespoon cooking oil
Directions:
1. Lightly spray a 8- to 9-inch cast iron skillet with cooking spray and drizzle with the 1 tablespoon cooking oil.
2. Place the skillet in the oven while it preheats.
3. Preheat oven to 425°F.
4. In a medium size bowl, combine dry ingredients.
5. Combine liquids and slowly add to combined dry ingredients, mixing well.
6. Pour into prepared pan and bake at 425°F for 15-20 minutes, until top and sides become golden brown.
