Notes
- Use gluten free 1 to 1 flour with xantham gum in it. I love King Arthur Flour or Bob's Red Mill.
- Make sure cornmeal is certified gluten free. Not all cornmeal is gluten free.
- The batter will be a little thick.
- If needed, replace buttermilk with regular milk.
- Bake until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Do not bake too long.
- Serve warm or room temperature. Great with butter on top.
- This recipe can be made in a 9 inch cast iron skillet as well. Grease with butter before adding batter.
- To make this into cornbread muffins, grease muffin pan. Bake for only 14 to 16 minutes.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Freeze individual squares for up to 1 month.
