Part 2... As promised!

Ingredients:  (CORNBREAD)  
***I doubled all ingredients below to make 2 pans cornbread***
(Ingredients below makes only 1 pan cornbread)
1 C. All-Purpose flour
1 C. Yellow Cornmeal
2/3 C. White Sugar
1 tsp. Salt
3 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/3 C. Vegetable oil (I used olive oil-EVOO)
1 C. Milk
1 Lg. Egg

Mix all liquid ingredients in a bowl... (eggs, oil, milk) and set aside...

Then, in a large bowl, mix all dry ingredients together.

Then add liquid ingredients to dry mix.

Oops... I forgot to add the sugar to the dry ingredients... Guess I'll do it now:)  Don't worry, it doesn't affect the flavor or texture by doing this:)

When ingredients are mixed together, your batter will look like this...

As I said before, I doubled the ingredients to make 2 pans... If you did this, use two 9" round pans and divide the batter between the two pans or you can use a large rectangular dish.  (Make sure you spray the bottom and sides of pans with olive oil spray)

Then place the batter filled pans in oven and cook 20 min at 400 degrees.  (Be sure to set your timer) or until top is golden brown.
***Oven temps vary, so after 20 min, check the cornbread.  The top may be golden brown, but the center may be gooey, so at this point I loosly cover the tops with a sheet of aluminum foil and cook another 5-10 min. until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean***

When I remove pans from oven, I glaze the tops with butter to taste (not necessary, but very yummy!!!

Serve with heaping bowl of chili, and you can add condiments of choice... I added a bit of sour cream and shredded cheese... It was delicious!

My husband likes to heat leftover cornbread and cover with melted butter and syrup... southern desert:)
Hope you enjoy Southern-Skinny style comfort food!
