YANKEE CORNBREAD

Steps:

• 1. Stir together dry ingredients. Then add egg, oil, and enough milk to make a batter a bit thinner than brownie batter but thicker than cake batter. Pour this into greased 9x9 inch pan. Bake in a pre-heated 400 degree oven about 20-30 minutes till done and lightly browned on top.
• 2. Notes: Now should you desire to add the additives you just put them in with the exception of sour cream, if adding sour cream, you add ½ teaspoon baking soda and add the sour cream before the milk.
• 3. I like to omit the sugar then put in a bit of sour cream, chopped jalapenos, a handful of whole kernel corn, a handful of shredded mexican cheese, and a bit of chopped cilantro for a nice Mexican cornbread.
