10minutes to combine; 30-35minutes to bake
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups yellow corn meal
1/3 cup (packed) dark brown sugar
1 large egg
1 cup sour cream or yogurt
1/4 cup (generous measure) diced canned green chilies
1/4 cup (packed) grated jack cheese
Butter an 8” square pan or its equivalent. Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
Sift together into a bowl the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Stir in the corn meal.
Crumble in the brown sugar. Mix these dry ingredients together, with a fork, until they are well-blended. Make a well in the center.
Beat together the egg and the sour cream or yogurt. Pour this mixture into the well in the center of the dry ingredients.
Mix with a wooden spoon. The batter should readily blend with a few swift strokes.
Add the green chilies and the cheese. Mix until uniform.
Spread into a buttered 8” square pan (or its equivalent). Bake at 350°F for 30-35 minutes, or until the center springs back when touched.
