Ham & Onion buttermilk cornbread
« on: June 03, 2019, 06:14:48 PM »
I'm usually not one to adulterate my cornbread with inclusions, but this looks darn tasty.

_____________________________________________________

Ingredients
1 pound ham, diced to ¼” cubes
1 onion, diced medium
8 ounces extra sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded or diced fine
1/2 cup flour
1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal not self-rising
1 teaspoon baking soda (aluminum free, if possible)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
5 tablespoons butter
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
bacon grease or butter for the pan

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F

In a heavy cast-iron skillet, ham cubes and diced onion together over medium low heat until onions are tender and ham begins to crisp slightly. Set aside and add 3 tablespoons butter to melt.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients.

Add ingredients from skillet to wet ingredient bowl and incorporate. Scrape skillet bottom thoroughly to get all the bits and pieces.

Add remaining butter to skillet and return to oven to heat. Watch carefully to ensure the butter does not burn.

Combine all ingredients and incorporate thoroughly.

Remove the skillet from oven. Roll slightly to spread out melted butter and and pour in batter. Bake for approximately 30 minutes until the top is browned and set, and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
It's all about the pancakes, people.

Should be pretty easy to modify and use Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix  >:D
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Go all out and use Spam instead of Ham.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Jiffy uses more sugar. Too sweet for me.

If I try the recipe I'll prob cut the sugar back to a teaspoon or two. Just enough to help it brown and soften any bitterness.
