CORN PONE
My husband's grandmother gave me this corn pone recipe years ago. She always made it with bacon drippings, which is heavenly, but if you're trying to be a little more health-conscious, you can use canola oil or a combination of the two. I cook it until it's crisp almost all the way through. It's delicious hot, warm or cold. -Tina Quiggle, LaGrange, Georgia

EASY CORNPONE
There are many versions of cornpone (or corn pone), a true staple of the American South. But the root of it all is a simple, easy cornmeal dish that's like cornbread, only in this case without out the leavener, eggs and buttermilk. The savory little patties are proof that you don't need a lot of ingredients to make something tasty. They're great for dipping in soups and stews, as a stand-in for biscuits as a breakfast side or on their own, slathered with butter and molasses or honey, for a quick snack. One bite and you will see why cornpone has lasted through the years.

Steps:
- Put a large cast-iron skillet in the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Whisk the cornmeal, oil, warm water and salt together in a large bowl until combined. The batter will be a little thicker than pancake batter, so it is easy to scoop with a spoon.
- Remove the hot skillet from the oven and add the remaining tablespoon of oil, swirling to coat. Spoon the batter into the skillet, making 7 to 8 ovals (each about 1/3 cup). Flatten the tops a bit with the back of the spoon. It is fine if the ovals touch slightly.
- Bake until the ovals are golden on the bottom and firm on top, about 40 minutes. Serve with butter and molasses or honey if using.
Tips:
- Use fresh cornmeal: Fresh cornmeal will give your corn pone a better flavor and texture.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the corn pone tough.
- Let the corn pone rest before baking: Let the corn pone rest for 5-10 minutes before baking to allow the cornmeal to absorb the liquid.
- Bake the corn pone in a hot oven: Bake the corn pone in a preheated oven to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Serve the corn pone warm: Corn pone is best served warm, with butter, honey, or your favorite toppings.
Conclusion:
Corn pone is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it sweet or savory, there is a corn pone recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give corn pone a try.
