I needed to find a recipe that would take care of my craving so I wouldn't need to spend the time or extra money stopping at the local coffee shop for a quick breakfast. After playing around with this one for a bit, I think I have it nailed down! I am one who needs easy baking, and this is a great option!
It will not last long that the boys actually WANT to help me with things... So I am trying to remind myself how important it is to include them now! This morning as I mixed up the scone dough Clayton asked to help. I was listening to a podcast later in the morning and she commented that we need to teach younger generations skills like baking, homesteading, homemaking... because many of those items have been lost on my current generation. I want my boys to appreciate what it means to have homemade food.
1 Cup Cornmeal
1 Cup All-Purpose Flour
2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 Cup Sugar (I use just under 1/2 a cup)
1/2 tsp Salt
1 Stick of Butter (It works best if this is really cold and chopped into pieces
2/3 Cup Sourdough Starter
2 Eggs
1/2 Tablespoon Vanilla
1 Cup Blueberries (frozen or fresh)
Honey (drizzle topping)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and Bake for 15-25 mins (Stones take more time, Metal Pans take less time)
NOTE: If you are using a Stone to bake on, preheat your stone in the Oven.
