I make this often when camping, as it works very well in a Dutch Oven. Works well in a skillet in the toaster oven also. smile

Pecan Corn Cake


Skillet or Dutch Oven Cake

1/2 cup Yellow Corn Meal

Then

normally, you would not put flour in Cornbread, but this is more 'coffee cake' like, and does well with the flour.

Wonder if you could mix the 1/2 cup of dark brown sugar and the 1/2 cup of pecans to a pouch of Martha White corn bread mix and get almost[maybe not quite as good] the same thing? Think I'll give it a try.

Try it. Should work to some extent. Might not get the same texture or flavor, but it might work.

I like the idea of pecans and cornbread. I can imagine the flavors in my mouf.

I'm also "taste imagining" BUTTER on top.

think in terms like 'slathered in butter', and then 'drenched in pure Cane Syrup'. laugh

Nor sugar. As chili does not have beans, cornbread does not have sugar. miles


Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

To be clear, this sounds good, it is just not cornbread. miles

More like "Corn Cake" but no matter what ya call it, it sure sounds good.
And that's coming from someone who doesn't care much for deserts.

to be clear, I have already noted that the product is more 'coffee cake like' than cornbread.
I am certain, that down through the years, I have established my bona fides with regards to Southern cuisine. laugh

I made it last night with Martha White buttermilk corn bread. Only thing I added was 1/2 cup of chopped pecans, !/2 cup brown sugar, and 1/2 cup of molasses/honey mix. It was darker than yours, but DELICIOUS! grin

I just got back from Publix. We are going up to my Daughter's for Thanksgiving, but I'll be making a bacon/cheddar yeller squash casserole, bourbon whipped sweet potatoes, and another of those White Chocolate/Raspberry cheese cakes. Also making cranberry scones, with Meyer Lemon Curd. Tasty stuff. smile

NOW you tell me. I have finished the Cheesecake, and have the squash casserole in the oven now.
All that is left, is to oven bake the sweet potatoes for that dish. And sample the bourbon selection. I want to make sure I use the right one in the recipe. laugh
Scones I'll make in the morning, and the Lemon curd is cooling in the fridge now. Damn it's tasty.
