I inherited a corn stick iron pan from my great grandmother. This is one way I use it. The bacon grease helps keep it seasoned. The prep time assumes you have bacon drippings saved. (A must in the Southern kitchen.) If not, you will need to make some. Enjoy the bacon! :)

How To Make bacon-flavored corn sticks

Step 1

Combine the first 4 ingredients in a large bowl; stir well.

Remove from the oven and spoon the batter evenly into the pans, filling 3/4 full. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove the corn sticks from the pans immediately. Serve warm.
