- 3 oz. cornmeal
- 2.5 oz. granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoon salt, kosher
- 1.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 egg
- 4.5 oz. sour cream
- 2 oz. milk
- 3 oz. peanut oil
- 4.5 oz. creamed corn
- 1 oz. melted butter
Directions
1) Create a small fire in an open area with gray coals.
2) In a mixing bowl, add all of the dry ingredients.
3) Mix well, and add all wet ingredients with the exception of the butter.
4) With a wooden spoon, mix the wet and dry ingredients together until combined.
5) Add the melted butter and mix again with wooden spoon.
6) Coat a 10 inch cast iron skillet with a spoonful of butter that has been heated slightly.
7) Pour the combined mixture into the cast iron skillet.
8) Cover the skillet in aluminum foil, ensuring that the foil is tight and well-sealed.
9) Clear the center of your fire, enough to place the pan in the center directly onto the mud or ground with the gray coals around but not touching the skillet (leave about 3 inches of space between the coals and pan).
10) Sprinkle some of the gray colored coals directly on the top of the foil and cook for about an hour.
11) Check the cornbread every 30 minutes or so until complete, as cooking times will vary due to the use of a campfire.
