2

Clucky
Poultry Seasoning
Ingredients
2
teaspoons ground dried sage
1 1/2
teaspoons ground dried thyme
1
teaspoon ground dried marjoram
3/4
teaspoon ground dried rosemary
1/2
teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2

I store
mine in empty seasoning jars, keeping the original labels, but when
that's not possible, I simply use small zipper style sandwich bags.

I love
homemade cornbread. Don't you? It seems to go with everything. It is
always handy to have packets of cornbread mix of one kind or another
for when you get that yen for that buttery goodness. :)
Handy
Dandy Corn Bread Mix
2/3 cup
all purpose flour
½ cup
yellow corn meal
3
tablespoons granulated sugar
1
tablespoon baking powder
¼
teaspoon salt
2
tablespoons vegetable oil
1 egg
1/3 cup
milk
Combine
the flour, corn meal, sugar, baking powder and salt in bowl, mixing
well. Add the Vegetable oil, continue mixing well
until the oil is fully incorporated and all
lumps are gone. There's your mix. I store mine up to six
months in the pantry in quart sized canning jars but any air-tight
container would do.
To make your
muffins: Preheat the oven to 400F
In a small bowl combine 1 mix recipe, 1 egg, and 1/3 c. milk, mixing lightly,
just until all ingredients are blended. Do not overmix as this will make your
muffins tough. Set the batter aside and let it rest 15 minutes or so. Lightly
butter a muffin tin (or line with muffin tin papers). I prefer butter as it
imparts a nice golden brown and tastes great!
Bake at 400F for about 15 minutes. :)
We are
always busy, busy, busy, but we love that fresh baked convenience
that those pricey yet handy baking mixes give us. They are super
simple to make and only take a couple of ingredients, so why not just
do it yourself?
