Would adding lard be an acceptable fat to throw in? I grew up on a farm, my grandma and my family in general never stopped using fats in recipes. I use it for making cornbread alllllll the time. Quote from my late grandma: "Its almost impossible to use too much fat when cooking" I've since learned how to use duck fat as well in French cuisine. It dramatically reduces how much sugar you need to use in recipes. And have you ever made home made ice cream? Its waaaaaay better than the ice cream you buy in stores. Then again, we made it from fresh cow milk we milked that morning, my god do i miss that. The ice cream, the cows can go suck eggs. :)
