Makka Atta Corn Bread

This is the season to find makka atta in the dukans! I usually buy 3-4 kg and keep it in the pantry for the rest of the year so we can have corn bread whenever we want. Here's a quick and easy recipe for great corn bread using makka atta!

Corn Bread (or Corn Muffins)

1 c. maida

1 c. makka atta

2-4 T. sugar (I use 3)

1 T. baking powder

1/2 t. salt

2 beaten eggs

1 T. mayonnaise

1 c. milk

1/4 c. oil

Combine maida, makka atta, sugar, salt, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and beat in the mayonnaise. Add the milk and oil. Add all at once to the dry mixture. Stir till combined. Let it rest a few minutes. Spoon into a 9 inch round pan or muffin tins. For a round pan, bake 25-30 minutes at 225. For muffin tins, bake 12-15 minutes at 225.

The mayonnaise is a little trick my Grandma told me to do. She said it makes the corn bread really moist and chewy, so I just always throw it in. But it's optional. :)
