This is a very old time recipe. My great grandparents used to eat this in a bowl with milk on it.
Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 ½ tablespoons shortening, melted
- 1 cup boiling milk
- 1 egg, separated
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9×9 inch baking pan.
Step 2
Sift cornmeal and flour together and spread thinly on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven until lightly brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool. Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine cornmeal mixture, salt, sugar and baking powder. Pour in shortening and milk; stir to blend.
Step 4
In a separate large bowl, beat egg white until stiff. In a third bowl, beat egg yolk then fold into egg white. Gently stir flour mixture into beaten egg. Pour into prepared baking pan.
Step 5
Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, until golden brown.
