How Do You Bake Hoe Cake Bread When There Is No Grocery Money?
Learn to bake up a hoe cake like your grandmother used to bake. It may have been called another name but it is actually a recipe that used cornmeal and flour. This version of hoecake skips the cornmeal and is for baking or frying bread in a pan. These were usually prepared during hard times but some people just like the convenience. A great staple recipe for those times that you are out of almost everything! Preheat the oven to 350 degrees before mixing the ingredients to bake the old fashioned ho cake bread. Hoecake was originally a cornbread mix fried on top of a hoe held over a fire. My own grandmother spoke of how this recipe was changed thru the years and flour alone was used if there was no corn meal. This recipe is for those hard times when there is no grocery money or for when you do not have enough lard, oil, mayonnaise or butter to make a regular pan of biscuits. Get a large bowl and put at least a cup of self rising flour into the bowl. Any amount of flour will be ok as long
