Corn Bread Loaf
SUBMITTED BY:
Edna Bjork
"WE LIKE corn bread with our chili, and this makes just enough for two people. I received the recipe from a quilting friend at church and have shared it with many others. Another way that my husband and I like eating corn bread is straight out of the oven, buttered and topped with syrup. -Edna Bjork, Norwalk, Iowa"

Very good. Just the right size for my family. I substituted canola oil for the melted shortening.

I really like this recipe because it makes a small amount of corn bread- perfect for our small family. It tasted good too! It wasn't very sweet even after I doubled the sugar, so next time I'll triple it- I just like my cornbread sweet though. I will make this cornbread again!

Thanks so much for this recipe. Something great to try is substitute all or part of the milk with buttermilk and use corn flour and brown sugar.

This recipe is a perfect size and the perfect sweetness if eating this with something else. To eat with butter alone, I might add another tablespoon of sugar. We microwaved the shortening to melt it then poured the milk in afterwards and it chunked up again so then I had to microwave that mixture about 30 seconds and stir until the shortening melted, and then stir in the beaten egg while stirring briskly. I think there is a misprint - the recipe calls for a 8x4x2 baking dish but really this only fills a 4x4x2 baking dish (Ikea has a nice clear glass one for like $2.99). I needed the full 18 minutes.

Wow!!! Why didn't I find this recipe before the other cornbread one?!?! It was absolutely amazing! I had to make muffins out of it since I didn't have the right size loaf pan, and they were some of the best muffins ever!!! I cooked them for 13 minutes and they came out so moist!!! Thank you!!!!

Excellent recipe and perfect size for 2 people. Although I tried tripling the recipe and it didnt cook right in a loaf pan as the outside was well cooked and inside was raw. Next time i will try in a shallow pan. Yummy. Oh and I reduced the sugar and have cooked it with either canola oil or shortening. Its good both ways.

My husband's exact words were "you could open a cornbread store with this cornbread!" I, like others, modified by doubling the sugar.

Turned out very nicely, but not sweet enough to be eaten alone, good to dip with, or slather with butter, or jam. I like sweeter corn bread better. I will make again, but I will double or triple the amount of sugar. Thanks!

This was really good, but it wasn't exactly what I was looking for...It was served well with chili and the men loved it. I will keep looking for my perfect bread..:(
