    The texture of figs mirrors that of cornmeal and orange is a natural partner so I thought I would create a recipe to gather them together-not too sweet and pretty darn tasty.

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 c.butter,melted
    • 1/2 c.sugar
    • 1 c. cornmeal
    • 1.5 c. flour (your choice-all white or 1/2 each white and whole wheat)
    • 2 tsp.baking powder
    • 1 c.buttermilk
    • 2 eggs (I slightly whip in separate bowl)
    • 2 tbsp.zest of an orange
    • juice of 1 orange

    1. Bowl 1,in largest available bowl: butter,sugar,cornmeal-beat or whisk
    2. Bowl 2: flour,baking powder-stir together

    4. Add 1/2 contents of bowl 2 to bowl 1 and stir until well incorporated
    5. Add 1/2 contents of bowl 3 to bowl 1 until well incorporated
    6. Repeat with second half of each
