Texas Corn Bread

By ukiahgal67

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups self-rising cornmeal
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup chopped green bell pepper
• 1 cup (4 ounces) grated Cheddar cheese
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 (17 ounce) can cream-style corn
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil

Preparation

Step 1

1.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Coat a 9- x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

2.
In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients.

3.
Pour mixture into prepared baking dish and bake 20 to 30 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Remove from oven and cut into serving-sized squares.

Notes

If self-rising cornmeal is not available, use a mixture of 3/4 cup flour, 3/4 cup cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon baking powder; it will make 1-1/2 cups self-rising cornmeal.

The original recipe calls for a stick of butter to be melted and poured evenly over the warm bread before serving.
If that sounds good to you, why not give it a try?!
