Cornbread

Use 1% buttermilk and a small amount of margarine to make this cornbread lower in saturated fat and cholesterol. Reduce the fat even more by using nonstick cooking spray instead of oil to grease the pan.

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup buttermilk, 1% fat
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup margarine (regular, tub)
  • 1 tsp vegetable oil (to grease baking pan)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350? F.
  2. Mix together cornmeal, flour, sugar, and baking powder.
  3. In another bowl, combine buttermilk and egg.
  4. Beat lightly.
  5. Slowly add buttermilk/egg mixture to the dry ingredients.
  6. Add margarine and mix by hand or with a mixer for 1 minute.
  7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in an 8 x 8 greased baking dish. Cool.
  8. Cut into 10 squares.
Yield: 10 servings, 1 square each
