Hoe Cake
Hoe cake is a Southern bread that is cooked in an iron skillet, like cornbread. This hoe cake recipe stems back to my great-great grandmother. My father has made this recipe for years, and it is always requested by his grandchildren. A slice of hoe cake will warm your insides — slathered with some homemade apple butter alongside of some butter beans, freshly sliced tomatoes, and a good tall glass of sweet tea. I promise your family will love this truly Southern recipe!
