Preparation / Directions:
Heat oven to 375°. Grease 9x9x2-inch square baking pan. Combine flour,
cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, soda and salt in a large shallow bowl until
mixture is well blended; make a well in the center. In a large measuring
cup,
whisk together egg, buttermilk and melted butter. Pour buttermilk mixture
into well, and stir the ingredients together just until evenly moistened; do
not over mix; batter should be lumpy.
Spoon batter into prepared baking pan, spreading evenly into corners with
rubber spatula. With a spoon, drop strawberry jam in dollops over the top of
the batter, spacing them evenly. Bake in 375° oven for 30 to 35 minutes or
until the top is lightly browned. Cool the bread in the pan on a wire rack
for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut into squares and serve.
