This is single person food, so I make it in a 6" skillet.

2/3 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup wheat flour
1 tablespoon of dried whole egg
2 tablespoons of dried buttermilk
3/4 teaspoon of risings (baking powder)
1/8 teaspoon of baking soda
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/4 cup of bacon drippings or lard.

Mix dry ingredients together, place clean skillet in hot (425F) oven with the lard/fat in it. Add hot water to dry mix to make a thick batter. When fat is melted, pour most of it in the batter and mix it in, put in skillet and bake in oven until a toothpick or knife comes out clean, and the top looks right. For a large recipe, I would reduce the oven temp to 375 or 400.

Thanks. There’s only one in my house - me - and I have a 6” iron skillet. I also have those dry ingredients. Will copy your recipe. I wish you lived next door to me.
