Cast Iron Skillet Vanilla Almond Corn Bread

Cast Iron Skillet Vanilla Almond Corn Bread

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Preheat skillet in oven.

Mix all ingredients.

Remove hot skillet from oven, grease (for example, high temp pan spray).

Pour batter into skillet, return to hot oven.

Bake 25 minutes (you want a good crust, but do not want the center too dry).



1 1/4 cup corn meal

3/4 cup flour

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 1/3 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk

2 eggs, well beaten

one stick butter, melted

1 tablespoon vanilla extract (no, that is not a typo, tablespoon, NOT teaspoon)

Onion Turkey Meatballs

Onion Turkey Meatballs

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Grease cookie sheet (high temp pan spray works well).

Mix all ingredients, shape into about two dozen gold ball size meatballs.

Bake 25 minutes, or until browned and not pink in center.



2 pounds ground turkey

1 cup bread crumbs

1/2 cup milk

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoon salt-free seasoning (any Penzey's mix works great)

one medium sweet onion, finely chopped

2 eggs, well beaten



Further note: I covered the cooked meatballs in marinara, baked them an additional 45 minutes, and served them over pasta.  Yummy.
