Corn Bread

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornmeal
2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup sugar
3/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cups whole milk (I've never used whole and it works with any kind)
1/4 cup shortening
1 egg

honey butter:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1/3 cup honey

1) preheat oven to 400 degrees F

2) Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar and salt in medium bowl

3) Add the milk, shortening and egg and mix only until all the ingredients are well combined

4) Pour the batter into a greased 8X8-inch pan

5) Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Let the cornbread cool slightly before slicing it with a sharp knife into 9 pieces.

SYNDY'S NOTES: I doubled the recipe and put it in a 9x13 pan and it worked great. I would cook a little longer the middle wasn't quite done. I also used 1/2 white and 1/2 wheat flour, and blue corn meal. They both worked fine.
