CORN BREAD

Chef Marcello Marano
A great addition to your Thanksgiving dinner (or anytime really...)!
Serves 4-6
Total time: 45 min (Prep:15 min, In active: 10min, Cook: 20min)

INGREDIENTS
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus butter for baking dish
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8-inch baking dish (at home I use a cast iron pan). 
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the eggs, buttermilk (or milk with a teaspoon of lemon) and butter. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the cornmeal mixture and fold together until there are no dry spots (the batter will still be lumpy). Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
  4. Bake until the top is golden brown and tester inserted into the middle of the corn bread comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Land Acknowledgment

The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
