Corn Lightbread Recipes

Steps:

• HEAT the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan.
• STIR the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
• ADD the egg, buttermilk, and vegetable oil. Stir until well blended. The batter should be thick, but creamy and pourable. If the batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon or two of water.
• POUR the batter into the loaf pan. Bake for 45 minutes, until golden brown.
• COOL the bread for 5 to 10 minutes in the pan, then remove from the pan and cool on a wire rack. Store tightly wrapped in aluminum foil.
• Note
• You can substitute 2 cups self-rising cornmeal mix and 1 cup self-rising flour for the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place shortening in an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-by-2 3/4-inch nonstick loaf pan. Transfer to oven until melted.
• Sift together sugar, flour, cornmeal, and salt. Combine buttermilk and baking soda in a glass measuring cup, then stir into dry ingredients until combined. Add melted shortening from the loaf pan; stir to combine. Pour batter into the hot loaf pan, and bake until golden brown, 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray or lightly grease a 9 inch round cake pan.

• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F; grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

• Let cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove from pan, and let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Paula Deen's Hint: If you can't find self-rising cornmeal mix, combine 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and enough cornmeal to fill one cup. This equals one cup of mix.

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients; blend in milk and oil.
• Spoon into lightly greased 9" X 5" loaf pan.
• Let stand 10 minutes.
• Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 mins; let cool 5 mins before removing from pan.
