Ingredients

 

• 3/4 cup butter, room temperature
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 3 large eggs, beaten
• 1-1/2 cups milk
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup blue cornmeal
• 4 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt

 

Directions

 

1. Preheat the oven to 400.
2. Using a hand blender, cream the butter and the sugar for about 3 minutes.
3. Whisk the eggs and milk in a bowl, until blended.
4. In another dry bowl, blend the dry ingredients together. Start blending the liquids slowly into the dry mixture until everything is used. Do not overmix - this part is best done by hand.
5. Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 pan and bake for 20-25 minutes until you see the top browning very slightly. Because of the color of the cornbread, it's a good idea to use a knife or toothpick inserted to test for done-ness.

Blue cornmeal is simply cornmeal with more protein and is from a variety of corn that is usually grown in New Mexico, and is supposedly easier to digest.  Recipe adapted from Fifteen Spatulas.
