Ingredients

• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1 Tbs whole-wheat flour
• 1/4 cup unprocessed uncooked wheat bran
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
• 1 egg

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine the buttermilk, egg, and oil and add to the dry ingredients, stirring just until the dry ingredients are moistened.

Pour the batter into an 8- by 8-inch pan or cast-iron skillet. (If using cast-iron, preheat the skillet in the oven for 3 minutes before adding the batter.) Bake for 20 minutes.
