That sounds almost idyllic, being prepared and having a backup plan to be
warm, toasty, and well fed.
The other day i got a pair of disposable aluminum bundt cake pans at the
Dollar Tree and they fit perfectly on top of each other in the crockpot.
Today i plan to try my hand at making cornbread in the crockpot. I plan
to put foil on top of the pans, and put wooden chopsticks in between to
support the top pan.
3/4 c Unbleached white flour
1/2 c Whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 c Walnuts; chopped
1 ts Orange zest; grated
4 tb Butter; chilled
2 tb Orange juice; up to 3 tb,
- very cold
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flours. Add the walnuts and orange
zest, and mix well. Cut the butter into the flour mixture until it is
well blended. A food processor equipped with a chopping blade works
well. Add just enough orange juice to form a moist but not wet dough.
Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic, and chill for 1 hour.
Roll out the dough to fit into a 10" pie plate.
