Corn Bread, Northern style, well almost...
Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl:
- 1 cup polenta
- 1 cup flour ( T65)
- 3 tea baking powder
- 3/4 tea salt
- 1/4 tea baking soda
Then whisk in:
- 1 cup whole milk
- 50g melted butter
- 25 g melted lard
Normally there is also an egg but I forgot it, it turned out just scrumptious, so why waste an egg?
Pop in the oven at 200°C until golden brown.
Immediately cut a slice and slather it with butter, keep the rest for dinner...if you can!
