Northern-style Sweet Cornbread

Northern-style Sweet Cornbread:
1 cup flour
1 cup cornmeal
2/3 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1tsp salt
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 400F. Mix 1 cup of white all-purpose flour with one cup of cornmeal. Add in sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir to mix the ingredients. Next add your egg, milk and oil. Mix well.Grease your pan and fill, then bake.

This recipe fills a 9 inch round cake pan. You can experiment with sizes and oven times more than I have but here’s what’s worked for me.9 inch cake pan- 25-30 minutes8 inch cake pan with a 3X5 mini loaf- 25 minutes16 muffins- 20 minutes 48 mini-muffins 10-12 minutes Every oven is different so look for some browning around the edges, a golden brown color on the top, and firmness in the center when lightly touched. Insert a toothpick in the center and if it comes out clean and dry it's done.
