5 Days Til Christmas: Cheesy Cornread

 

It's practically here.

5 days?

They're going to fly by.

I'm starting to feel like an excited kid.

 

 

I love cornbread.

I love snacking on it and I love using it to dip into soups or to sandwich pulled pork in between.

This recipe is my favourite so far.

(From Allrecipes)

 

1 cupcornmeal

3 cupsall-purpose flour

1 1/3 cupswhite sugar

2 tablespoonsbaking powder

1 teaspoon salt

2/3 cupvegetable oil

1/3 cupmelted butter

2 tablespoonshoney

4eggs, beaten

2 1/2 cupswhole milk

 

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. Stir together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Pour in the vegetable oil, melted butter, honey, beaten eggs, and milk, and stir just to moisten.
3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, until the top of the cornbread starts to brown and show cracks.
4. *I added this step - about 5-10 minutes before it's done, sprinkle shredded cheese over the top for a delicious cheesy crust.

 Hope everyone's gotten their Christmas shopping done!
