CORNBREAD
1 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup coarse-cracked cornmeal (polenta)
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/4 cup olive oil
Mix flour, sugar, baking powder & salt together, then stir in cornmeal and polenta meal. Make well in center and add all wet ingredients mixing just till smooth; do not over beat. Pour into greased & floured pan and bake at 425 degrees for approximately 20 - 25 minutes.
You don't have to mix in polenta meal, you can use all straight cornmeal: I like the crunchiness of polenta as it adds character to the finished product. Along with butter, I also use honey . . . yum.
