Cajun Cornbread

Cajun Cornbread at Miz Helen's Country Cottage
Cajun Cornbread has a blend of Cajun seasons blended with some stone ground corn meal, this makes a slice of cornbread you wont forget. We love our cornbread here at the cottage and this cornbread recipe is a spicy blend that will kick up any meal. I am often ask to bring my Cajun Cornbread to a covered dish event, one skillet full doesn't last very long.

Pour 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil into the skillet with no heat.
In a large mixing bowl stir together the cornmeal, flour, salt, cayenne pepper, baking powder, baking soda, and Creole seasoning.
Whisk together the milk and eggs until blended.
Pour 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, the milk and eggs into the cornmeal mixture and mix until completely blended.
Pour the sauted vegetables into the cornmeal mixture.
Re-heat the oil in the iron skillet and pour the cornbread batter into the hot skillet.
Bake at 400 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.
Recipe Tips
This cornbread will appear to be darker because the cornmeal is stone ground.
After serving, rermove the cornbread to a safe dish. Do Not leave it in the iron skillet over night, it will take on an iron taste.
Enjoy!

  7. I was just about making something similar to this. It's called proja in the Balkans and they put cheese inside. The vegetables look delicious, maybe I'll combine both recipes and see how it goes. Thanks for sharing 😊
