Albers Corn Bread



Tortilla chips go great with chili. Add enough cheese it's like eating chili nachos and who doesn't love nachos? But if you are in the pickle of lacking chips you can pinch hit with corn bread.

Albers Corn Bread
from Albers

1 c Albers® White or Yellow Corn Meal
1 c all-purpose flour
1/4 c granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 c milk
1/3 c vegetable oil
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease 8-inch square baking pan.


Combine meal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in medium bowl.

Combine milk, oil and egg in small bowl; mix well.

Add milk mixture to flour mixture; stir just until blended.

Pour into prepared pan.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Serve warm.

The last time I made corn bread I made Albers Sweet Corn Bread and it was good and sweet, very much like the stuff in the baby blue box. This recipe has a texture very similar to the sweeter recipe. While still just slightly sweet, it turns out I prefer this recipe to accompany my chili. Next time though, I'm going to look for a recipe that isn't quite so cake-like in texture.

Cost:
  • corn meal: $0.57
  • milk: $0.50
  • egg: $0.37

Total: $1.44 plus a 56 SWAG for flour, sugar, powder and oil makes it $2 total. That's 17 cents per each of 12 servings.
