Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup butter (unsalted, melted)
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and the egg until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring well until a cohesive dough forms.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your homemade Corn Pone Cookies!
