buttermilk cornbread

1 cup cornmeal
1 cup flour
1 package dry buttermilk (makes 1 cup)
1/4 cup honey (use a little more next time)
2 eggs
3 tbsp butter
1 cup water
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

Mix honey, melted butter, water and eggs together and mix in dry ingredients.
Bake at 375 for 30-40 mins (after 20 mins a toothpick came out clean-but I turned the oven off and left it in another 20 mins)

Irish soda bread

2.5 cups flour
2 tbsp oats (used steel cut and it worked fine)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 package of dry buttermilk
2 tbsp butter (melted)
1 to 1 1/4 cups water
1 tbsp honey

Mix the dry ingredients together, and then stir in the wet (I used 1 cup water and it was enough).  From a ball (add more flour if necessary), divide into 2 smaller balls, flatten to about 1 inch circles, cut an X on the top and bake.  I ended up baking for 20 mins at 425, turning the oven off and leaving the bread in for another hour or so (because I didn't need it right away and it browned quicker than I thought it would).

Maybe lower the temp to 375 next time and cook for 30-45 mins
