STRAWBERRY CORNBREAD

Ingredients

• 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 3/4 cup strawberry jam

Directions

Heat oven to 375F. Grease 9 x 9 x 2-inch pan. Combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, soda and salt in a large shallow bowl until mixture is well blended; make a well in the center. In a large measuring cup, whisk together the egg, buttermilk and melted butter. Pour buttermilk mixture into well, and stir the ingredients together just until evenly moistened; do not overmix; batter should be lumpy. Spoon batter into prepared baking pan, spreading evenly into corners with rubber spatula. With a spoon, drop strawberry jam in dollops over the top of the batter, spacing them evenly. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the top is lightly browned.
