Hubby gave me a challenge. try making cornbread in a mug. I extend this challenge to you all too! This was not easy an easy task. I must have tried 6 to 8 attempts until I got something acceptable and good but not yet perfect. Read more Fine or coarse grain cornmeal did not work out well. Corn flour gave somewhat better results. Finally I knew I had to add some baking powder for better texture. Also I had to add some canned kernal corn to give better flavor.I used water, buttermilk and then skim milk which gave a better texture. Cooking time also a bit of a challenge in my 1500 watt oven. 3 minutes a tad to much, 2:45 minutes much better. Your recipe will puff up like a top hat but settle to the rim of the cup. This is a cross between cake and bread and not a true cornbread Best if eaten immediately and it does taste great with butter. Enough for two people. My challenge to you: see if you can perfect it better! See less
