Mom's Cornbread

So one of the best, most-used recipes in my collection is for my mom's cornbread. I'm making some today to go along with a big batch of chili that we're having for lunch with some friends.

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:

3/4 cup yellow corn meal

3/4 cup flour

1/2 cup sugar

1 1/2 t. baking powder

3/4 cup milk

1/4 cup canola oil

1 egg

Method:

Combine corn meal, flour, sugar and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Add milk, oil and the egg to the dry ingredients and stir together by hand. Bake in an 8-inch square pan (metal or glass) at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. (I use a glass pan because I have a gas oven.)

This is seriously easy to make and very delicious. Enjoy!
