Tea Breads, Buns And Muffins Recipes - Corn Bread

Ingredients

  • 115g/1 cup plain flour

  • 65g/1/4 cup caster sugar

  • 5ml/1 tsp salt

  • 15ml/1 tbsp baking powder

  • 175g/1 1/2 cups cornmeal or polenta

  • 350ml/1 1/2 cups milk

  • 2 eggs

  • 75g/6 tbsp butter, melted

  • 115g/1/2 cup margarine, melted

Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Then line a 23 x 13cm/9 x 5in loaf tin with greaseproof paper and then grease the paper.

  2. Sift the flour, salt and baking powder into a mixing bowl. Add the cornmeal or polenta and stir to blend. Make a well in the centre. Whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter and margarine. Pour the mixture into the well. Stir until just blended; do not over mix.

  3. With a fork, mash the bananas to a puree, then stir into the mixture. Stir in the vanilla essence and nuts.

  4. Pour the mixture into the tin and bake until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.
