    I make these at home in the oven all the time. I call it dinner bread. It takes almost nothing to step these up a lot. A bit of sugar and salt really goes a long way to make it taste like more than just flour. If you add a bit of baking powder (note: not baking soda), it will fluff the dough up and give it a lot nicer of a chew. Don't feel shy about playing with the amount of baking powder, in fact I'd encourage you to play with the amounts.

    Aussies call that damper, and we usually add a bit of butter or oil into the mix as well, I prefer it cooked in a dutch oven or wrapped in alfoil, bugger eating ash and coals remnants.

    Read 'Early Times in Texas' by Kentuckian JC Duval about his adventures fighting against Santa Anna's army in 1830s that, it's a long story but a short book, escaping disaster, he found a steel corn grinder at a raided pioneer log house, put whole field corn in the grinder and ate ash cake. No recipe other than that. I tried it with a little salt, baking powder, fried in a hot skillet. Very good.
