Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/4 c All purpose flour
3/4 c Corn meal
1/4 c Sugar
2 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Salt
1 c Milk
1/4 c Vegetable oil
1 ea Egg, beaten

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 8 or 9 inch baking
pan. Combine dry ingredients. Stir in milk, oil and
egg, mixing just until dry ingredients are moistened.
Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 20 - 25 minutes
or until lightly brown and wooden tooth pick inserted
near center comes out clean. Serve warm. Serves 9.
Microwave directions: Mix ingredients same as above
and pour batter into UNGREASED pan. Microwave on HIGH
5 - 6 minutes, rotating 1/4 turn after 2 minutes. Let
stand 5 minutes before serving.
Hope this is simple enough..... As the recipe
says...only mix ingredients until moistened. If you
beat it too much it would come out solid rather than
light and airy. I cover the baking pan with Saran
Wrap leaving part of one corner pulled back for steam
to get out when I put it in the microwave...seems to
help it bake more evenly. The center will seem a
little soggy when you take it out but remember it
continues to cook during that 5 minutes before you
serve it. Time also makes a difference depending on
the wattage of your micro. I think I leave mine in
for about 7 minutes.
