Turkish Corn Bread

 


Ingredients: 
1/2         cup  whole-wheat flour           
2 teaspoons  baking powder           
1 teaspoon  sugar            
1/2 teaspoon  salt           
1 cup  stone-ground yellow cornmeal           
1 1/2 cups  plain low-fat yogurt           
2 eggs           
2 tablespoons  olive oil       

Instructions: 
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.    

Oil an 8" x 4" loaf bread pan or an 8" x 8" round cake pan.   

Sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cornmeal.   

Beat together the yogurt, eggs, and olive oil.   

Stir in the dry ingredients and mix well but don't overwork.     

Pour into the oiled pan and bake for 30 minutes, until the top is golden and the bread firm.   

Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool another 15 minutes or more before slicing (for a loaf) or cutting into squares or wedges if baked into a cake pan.   

Storing: Cover the pan with foil, or keep leftover pieces in plastic bags.  

This bread does not freeze well.
