Corn bread!

To go along with our chili, we always make corn bread. I take no special ownership of this recipe. It comes straight off the container of corn meal.

Ingredients

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup Corn Meal
¼ cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt (optional)
1 cup skim milk
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 egg whites or 1 egg, beaten

Heat oven to 400. Grease 8 or 9 inch pan. Combine dry ingredients. Stir in milk, oil and egg, mixing just until dry ingredients are moistened. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until light golden brown and wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.

I generally eat mine with butter. The boys like to put butter and syrup. (Something I'd never heard of, but Aaron loves to do. Joseph enjoys it as well! That's what makes it so kid friendly.)
