A Wilkes Team recipe
2 C. whole wheat flour or all-purpose white flour
2 C. yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup of sugar
2 tsp of baking powder
1 tsp salt
4 eggs
2 cup of milk or whipping cream
1/2 of oil do not use olive oil, it does not work!
1/2 cup of honey
In a bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a small mixing bowl, beat the eggs, Add cream, oil and honey; beat well. Stir into the dry ingredients just until moistened.
Pour into a greased 13x9 inch baking pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 min.
Tips from the Wilkes: We don't like it over done so we watch it carefully, around 20 min. we check to see if there is any slight browning on the top at that point it is baked through but makes a soft corn bread. If you like it more crumbly and just more done bake it another 5-8min. Then check for more browning on the top. Then enjoy it with some butter, and honey on top!!
This is good stuff! This is the only cornbread Mommy has made ever since the Wilkes shared this with us. The first time we went camping on the Wilkes Team Land they made this for the trip. Their land was over run with bushes and we had to cut a path to make a bathroom. We had a girl's room and a boy's room. There were so many bushes that one was completely hidden while using the restroom. The most beautiful sky I have ever seen was late that night. It was so pitch black but the sky will completely covered with dazzling and sparkling stars. It was amazing and overwhelming. We serve a mighty God!!!
Love Always,
Mommy
