Corn bread makes an excellent alternative to plain bread for poultry stuffings as well as a tasty side dish, especially for sopping up gravy.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cups  (175 mL)  all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp  (15 mL)  granulated sugar
  • 1-1/2 tsp  (7 mL)  baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp  (4 mL)  baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp  (1 mL)  salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1-1/2 cups  (375 mL)  buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp  (30 mL)  butter, melted
