Cowboy Cornbread

Submitted by Aline Erwin

  • 1/2 cup vegetable shortening
  • 2 cups self rising yellow corn meal mix
  • 8 oz cream style corn
  • 8 oz sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 4 oz can chopped green chiles, undrained

Preheat oven to 400. Melt shortening in a 9” pan (I use a round cast iron skillet). Tilt pan to coat bottom. Mix all other ingredients and add melted shortening and mix until blended. Pour into hot pan. Bake 30 minutes or until golden brown.
