Granny’s Cornbread

Granny's Cookbook




Another one of my favorites is cornbread. I remember Granny would dip one into a tall glass of buttermilk. I personally never tried it but she loved it.

  • 1 egg
  • 2/3 cup Milk
  • 1/2 cup Flour
  • Cornmeal (not self-rising)
  • 2 level teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • Pinch of salt

Mix all ingredients together and add enough cornmeal to thicken. Put grease in an iron skillet and get hot; pour cornbread mixture into skillet. Bake at 500 degrees until golden brown on top.

Granny gave this recipe to Freda Wilkerson so that everyone could make cornbread like hers.
