Cornbread for Two

Cornbread is one of those side dishes that I think about when we have chili. It is also delicious with  soup or as a dessert with butter and honey.  Now that I often cook for two again, it is fun to use this small cast iron pan I received as a gift from a friend. You can double the recipe to make it in a large cast iron, regular loaf pan or 9 x 9 baking pan.

Ingredients:

• butter or margarine to grease pan
• 3/4 cups flour
• 3/4 cups cornmeal
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• 2 Tbsp oil
• 1/2 cup buttermilk

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F and grease pan well.
2. Combine dry ingredients in mixing bowl.
3. In a small bowl beat eggs with fork, add in the oil and buttermilk to combine.
4. Add liquids to dry ingredients and stir until blended in well.
5. Spread into prepared pan and bake 25 - 30 minutes.
