directions
- You need 3 separate bowls to make this.
- If you do not have buttermilk, put 2 tblsp lemon juice in a small bowl per 1 cup of milk. Add the milk and let it sour for a few minutes.
- Sift together flour, cornmeal and baking powder and baking soda. Pour buttermilk into dry ingredients and stir well. Add 2 beaten eggs and 1/2 of melted margarine/butter into batter.
- Saute onions and scallions (both green & white part) in remaining melted margarine/butter. Set aside.
- Mix cheese with the remaining 2 beaten eggs, salt, pepper and sugar.
-
Grease 2 9x5 loaf pan with oil and layer as follows:
- Use approximately 2/3 cup conrmeal batter per layer
- Cornmeal batter - cheese mixture - onion/scallion.
- Repeat a second time ending with cornmeal batter.
- Bake at 350 deg for approximately 1 hour or until dry in the middle.
- If you are planning to freeze this, I would cool the loaves, slice it into 1" slices and layer them between waxed paper in a plastic container. They can then be removed and heated in the microwave, or on a greased griddle.

Without question, I am a "foodie". I love good food, enjoy trying new recipes and love to bake. As I am still working, most of my cooking is done on the weekend. I usually make enough so that I can freeze the other portion. This way my DH & I have another meal that is right there except for heating it up. If you don't put it in the freezer, you can't take it out!
