Servings

Ingredients

Units
  • 1.75 cups all-purpose
  • 2 cups cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 0.75 cup sugar
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 0.5 cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix all the dry ingredients together. Then mix all the wet ingredients together. Combine the two mixtures. Pour into a 16x8 inch greased pan (or 2 rectangular ones) and bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes.

  2. 2

    Because of the sweetness of the cornbread, I prefer to eat it like a cake with fruits and jam, but it is up to you!
