Instructions

  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 175 ℃ / 350 ℉ (fan setting).
  2. In the bowl of your stand mixer, combine buttermilk, oil, and egg. Use the egg beater attachment to beat them together until the mixture becomes very smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, thoroughly mix cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Ensure that the dry ingredients are evenly combined, then sift them into another bowl to remove any lumps that might form.
  4. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture in the stand mixer bowl. Use the normal paddle attachment to mix everything together until you achieve a smooth dough. The dough may have a relatively wet consistency. Allow it to rest for about five minutes.
  5. While waiting, grease a baking tin generously with butter to prevent sticking.
  6. Pour the dough into the prepared baking tin and use a spatula to evenly smooth it out.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the bread comes out clean, indicating it’s fully baked.
  8. Once done, let the Chimodho cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
