Aunt Marys Alabama Cornbread Recipes

Steps:

• Pour vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet; place in the oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Mix cream-style corn, cornmeal, buttermilk, sour cream, yogurt, eggs, salt, and red chile pepper together in a bowl to form batter. Remove skillet from oven using oven mitts; pour in batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges pull away from skillet, 30 to 40 minutes. Spread butter over top.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter and place the skillet in the oven.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, buttermilk and eggs. In a large bowl, mix together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, cake flour, baking powder and sugar. Whisk the egg mixture into the dry mixture until combined. Do not overmix!
• Carefully remove the cast-iron skillet from the oven and pour the batter into the hot skillet. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. When done, rub the top with butter and add more for each slice when cut, if desired. Bon appetit!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and corn meal together; set aside.
• In a second bowl, mix together the oil, sugar, eggs and milk.
• Pour the liquid mixture into the dry mixture and beat together.
• You may need to add a bit more milk - it should be the consistency of cake batter.
• Pour into a greased and floured 9 inch square pan.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes.
• If you would like to add chopped jalapenos or cheese, I would suggest decreasing the amount of sugar, as this does make a pretty sweet bread, and I don't think it would be suitable flavour with heat!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together cockles and mushrooms.
• Place mustard, olive oil and chives into a jar. Cover and shake well.
• Stir dressing into cockle mixture. Cover and chill for 20 minutes.
• Arrange sliced avocado in a plate and sprinkle with lemon juice.
• Spoon over cockle salad and serve with bread.

Steps:

• Beat the sugar and butter with a spoon until creamy. In three batches, sift and mix the flour into the sugar-butter mixture. Mix well, until fluffy. (my Aunt Mary uses a wooden spoon for mixing, but you can use electric beaters).
• Pat the dough flat onto a greased cookie sheet, covering about 3/4 of the pan (I pat the dough into neatly formed rectangular shape). Puncture the dough at regular intervals with a fork. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Cut into 15 pieces per pan (1 inch wide). Bake 1/2 hour at 300-325°F Let cool.

Steps:
