Spoonbread



3 cups milk
1 ¼ cups cornmeal
3 eggs
2 tablespoons butter
1 ¾ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt

Stir meal into rapidly boiling milk. Cook until very thick, stirring constantly. 

Stock up on elbow grease for this one.


Remove from heat and allow to cool. The mixture will be very stiff. Add well-beaten eggs, salt, baking powder, and melted butter. Beat with an electric mixer for 15 minutes. 

It's a long time mixing, but it's a nice little brain vacation while it's happening.


Pour into a well-greased pan and bake for 20-30 minutes at 375 degrees F. Serve from pan by spoonful with butter.

Dished out and enjoyed!



My Rating: 4/5 "This is a really moist cornbread, which in my book makes it a treat. It's bland, although I think the flavor actually improved as leftovers. Still, it's a unique dish with nice down-home comfort flair."
