Tastes great with Corn bread, and I just so happen to have a favorite Corn Bread Recipe to share with you, straight from my Momma’s kitchen!
Nana’s Perfect Cornbread
- 1 cup flour (we used whole white wheat)
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup oil
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 T. baking powder
- 1 t. salt
Preheat oven to 425*. Mix dry ingredients well. Stir in corn meal. Beat eggs, then add eggs, milk and oil to dry ingredients. Beat just until smooth. Pour into 9×9 baking dish or deep dish baking stone. Bake for 15-20 minutes. We grew up putting butter, honey or syrup on our cornbread. It’d be good crumbled up in the above Brats and Beans recipe too.
