Yield:
40 to 50 servings
Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose white-flour
5 cups stone-ground cornmeal
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons white sugar
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
4 eggs, beaten
4 cups milk
12 tablespoons (1-1/2 sticks) butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease an 11-1/2-inch by 19-1/2-inch pan.
Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl and mix thoroughly with a whisk.
In another large bowl, beat the eggs with the milk. Add the butter and mix thoroughly. Add to the dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. Pour into the pan.
Bake for about 30 minutes or until a tester inserted near the center comes out clean. Do not overbake. Serve warm or cooled.
Wonderful! Be sure and pour into a hot greased iron skillet–you’ll love it!
Made this for my daughter’s graduation, turned out good. Don’t overbake like I did! We made muffins:)
This was the first time making a large batch of cornbread. I followed your recipe exactly and it turned out disappointing. You would think 5 cups of cornmeal it would taste like cornbread but it doesn’t at all. It puffed up in the middle and then deflated once it cooled. Disappointed because I have a nursing home waiting for cornbread.
