Mommy's Bakery - Corn Bread


Mommy seeing her Apple Crumble a success, decided to bring on her bread maker (another 'white elephant' collection of hers) which she only used for less than 5 times. We bought the bread maker from Carrefour Suntec under their housebrand "BLUESKY" after Mommy heard from Aunty Joy how convenient it is to bake our own bread & kaya with this maker.

Today Mommy is using the Corn Bread recipe that Aunty Joy has shared with her quite some time back, with slight variation on the ingredients & methods.

Ingredients: -
  1. 220g milk (Mommy used my Enfagrow Milk Powder cos she forgotten to buy fresh milk)
  2. 1 tsp salt
  3. 45g unsalted butter
  4. 400g bread flour
  5. 45g castor sugar
  6. 2 tsp instant yeast
  7. 200g frozen corn (Aunty Joy's recipe called for canned sweet corn)
  8. 1/2 tsp bread softener (this is optional - for sweet bread)

Methods: -

  1. Measure all the ingredients and pour into the bread pan.
  2. Insert bread pan into bread maker.
  3. Select setting to Sweet Bread (this is based on the bread maker "BLUESKY" we had).
  4. Select crust to your preference.
  5. Press Start to begin.

Notes: -

  1. For the sweet corn, do remember to dust a bit of bread flour to it to prevent it from lumping together.
  2. You can replace the Milk with either fresh milk or water. On 1st attempt, Mommy used my Enfagrow formula milk and the color of the bread is more yellowish and taste better. On 2nd attempt, she tried with fresh milk and the bread is slightly lighter in color and not strong taste of formual milk.
  3. If you like the bread to be sweeter, you could try to add another 20g of castor sugar.

Happy Baking!
