Honey Golden Cornbread This could be a real challenge to the famous Marie Callender national restaurant cornbread recipe.. My family asks for my navy bean soup so I will make this cornbread recipe, with honey butter.. enjoy!
Preheat oven to 400°F.
1) Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar and salt in a medium bowl.
2) Add the milk, shortening and egg and mix only until all the ingredients are well combined.
3) Pour the batter into a greased 8x8-inch pan.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Let the cornbread cool slightly before slicing it with a sharp knife into 9 pieces.
Special Honey butter
For the honey butter, use a mixer on high speed to whip the butter and honey together until smooth and fluffy.
Maybe I'll try this with navy bean soup or with that zucchini potato soup recipe above. I have had some difficulty with cornbread lately. Last September I went to my neighbor's house for supper. Her aunt made cake-like corn bread that was soft and --oh-- so sweet. Since then no matter how many variations I do (including adding the extra sugar she did), my cornbread always seems flat and far from sweet.
Where's the navy bean soup recipe? Was it in the FReeper cookbook? (Don't have it handy, here)
