Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups milk
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1.75 teaspoons baking powder
• 1.25 cups yellow cornmeal

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Measure milk into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add cornmeal; cook and stir for several minutes, until cornmeal has absorbed all of milk. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for about 1 hour. Mixture will be very stiff.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish.

Step 3

Place cornmeal mixture into a large bowl. Stir in eggs, salt, baking powder, and butter. Pour into the prepared casserole dish.

Step 4

Bake for 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges become lightly toasted. Serve hot directly from the dish with a spoonful.
