High-Rise Cornbread

A yeast cornbread! One of the favorites in my house.

High Rise Cornbread

This is a hearty bread made with just a touch of cornmeal to give it  a unique appearance and taste.  It's soft crust and firm texture make it a great sandwich bread, giving the average lunch a little more pep!  It's also wonderful with soups or toasted with a little honey butter.


Hungarian Poppy Seed Cookies

This heritage cookie is one of my Dad's favorites.  Handed down by his mother, she traditionally made it at Christmas, rolling it in red and green sugar.  It's a great short bread cookie for any time of the year, though!


As beautiful as they are tasty!


Ingredients: almonds, butter, cinnamon, egg, flour, poppy seeds, sugar, sugar, vanilla
