Granny White

Ingredients:
1/3 c. cornmeal
1 tsp. salt
1 pkg active dry yeast
3 c. all−purpose flour
1/4 c. light molasses
3 T. margarine or butter
1 large egg

Directions:
In large bowl, combine cornmeal, salt, yeast, and 1 cup flour. In
1−quart saucepan over low heat, heat molasses, margarine or butter,
and 1 cup water until very warm (120 degrees to 130 degrees F).
Margarine or butter does not need to melt completely. Meanwhile,
grease a 2−quart souffle dish or casserole.
With mixer at low speed, gradually beat molasses mixture into dry
ingredients just until blended. Increase speed to medium; beat 2
minutes, occasionally scraping bowl with rubber spatula. Beat in
egg and 1 cup flour to make a thick batter; continue beating 2
minutes, scraping bowl often. With wooden spoon, stir in remaining
1 cup flour to make a soft dough.
Place dough in souffle dish. Cover and let rise in warm place (80−85
degrees F) until doubled, about 1 hour.
