Dot Spann of Jackson submitted this recipe for cornbread.
"This recipe is a favorite of my family," she wrote. "My husband has cornbread crumbled in buttermilk several times a week. Two of our grandsons enjoy this treat with him at every opportunity."
Dot’s Cornbread
I use a 7-inch iron skillet. Heat oven to 425 degrees.
2 T vegetable oil
1 cup Martha White self-rising cornbread mix
1/2 cup self rising flour
1/4 tsp. baking soda
2 T sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg
Put oil in skillet and place in oven until very hot. Mix together meal, flour, sugar and soda. Add egg and buttermilk and stir until well blended. Remove skillet from oven and add hot oil and mix well. For crusty cornbread, sprinkle a little meal in the oily skillet before you add the batter.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until browned on top. Remove from oven and lift and turnover bread.
