Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup corn meal
- 1 cup flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ cup brown sugar (optional)
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup plain yogurt
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- ¼ cup melted butter or olive oil
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a Dutch oven, preheat with 16–18 glowing charcoal briquettes, with 3 times as many on the top as on the bottom.
- In a large bowl, mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and brown sugar, if used.
- In another bowl, whisk together the milk, yogurt, egg, and melted butter or olive oil.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir until just combined, no longer.
- Immediately pour into the greased pan and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Equipment
Dutch oven (optional), 8-inch square baking pan, greased, Whisk, Toothpick
Notes
Over-mixing after adding together the liquid and dry mixtures will toughen the batter!
