1 c. flour
1 c. yellow cornmeal
1 c. sugar
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
4 tbsp. bacon grease (oil)
1 egg
1 c. milk (or water)

Preheat oven (400 degrees). Place 1/3 cup of oil in bottom of skillet and preheat. Mix dry ingredients into bowl.

Mix liquids separate then add to bowl. Remove skillet from oven and pour in mixture. Contents of mixture should look similar to pancake batter. Some oil in bottom of skillet will come over sides of mixture. (This will give it a little crunch to the corn bread.) Bake at 400 degrees for about 25 minutes or until golden.
