Popcornbread

Ingredients:
1 ½ cups Old Mill Popcorn Meal
1 cup Old Mill Self-Rising Flour
¾ tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1  tsp sugar (optional in the south)
1 ½ cups milk
½ cup sour cream
2 eggs (beaten)
5 tbsp  lard (melted)

 
   

 

Directions:

Yes, it may sound odd, but we grind popcorn into a meal that adds a wonderful crunch and unique flavour to cornbread or anything else you want to try it in.

  • Pre-heat your oven to 375.
  • Put some oil in your cornbread pan or in a 10” skillet.
  • Put the pan in the oven to get hot. You want the oil to be lightly smoking.
  • Be sure to have a baking sheet under it to catch any drips.
  • Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Mix the milk, sour cream and eggs in another bowl.
  • When your cornbread pan or skillet is hot, take it out of the oven.
  • Mix the wet and dry ingredients together until just mixed. Once combined, this will rise quite fast, and over mixing will cause it to fall making for some heavy cornbread.
  • Quickly spoon the batter into your cornbread pan or pour it into a skillet.
  • Bake a cornbread pan for 25-30 minutes and a skillet for 40-45 minutes.
  • Serve hot with plenty of butter and enjoy the unique flavour of our popcorn without the bowl.
