Cornbread - Amish Sour Cream Cornbread

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

Post by Chowhound »

Easy-Amish-Sour-Cream-Cornbread-2x3.jpg
3/4 cup cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 Tablespoons white granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream (regular or reduced fat – full fat is best)
1 large egg, beaten
2 Tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup milk (whole milk is best)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees f. and grease a 9×5 bread pan with non-stick cooking spray. In a large bowl, add all of the dry ingredients (cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt) and mix well using a whisk. Next, add wet ingredients (sour cream, egg, butter and milk), using a spoon, mix until just blended (do not over mix) then pour batter into baking pan spreading evenly. Bake on middle rack of oven for 30 to 35 minutes. Be sure to check the bread using a toothpick in the center, making sure it comes out clean. Remove from oven, allow to cool for 10 minutes then remove from pan.
