Corn Bread

Most corn bread recipes are made with much too much sugar. This is basically Richard's mother's recipe, and while the family in general had a sweet-tooth, the amount of sugar she uses in her corn bread is less than half of other popular recipes.

Basic Recipe

	1 1/4 cups flour
	3/4 cup corn meal
	2 tablespoons sugar
	1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
	1 cup skim milk
	1/4 cup butter, melted (but not hot)
	1 egg beaten

Heat oven to 400 ^oF. Grease 8 or 9 inch pan. Combine dry ingredients. Stir in wet ingredients (do not over mix). Pour into pan and bake 20-25 minutes, or until a light golden brown. A wooden toothpick inserted in the middle should come out clean.

Serves 9.
