SMOKY MOUNTAIN CORN BREAD

A few years back, our family went on a vacation to the Smoky Mountains National Park. We went on a tour of an old grain mill. The grain mill sold cornmeal that they milled on site. Luckily, the cornmeal had a recipe for corn bread. Now, I do not know if it was the cornmeal or just the memories of the trip, but I love this corn bread. Enjoy!

SMOKY MOUNTAIN CORN BREAD

1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups buttermilk
2 cups cornmeal
1/2 cup flour
4 tablespoons shortening

Combine sugar, salt, soda and powder in a bowl and add buttermilk. Add cornmeal and flour and combine. Add melted shortening to mixture. Heat pan and pour mixture into the hot pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45- 60 minutes.

ENJOY!
