Gluten-Free Cornbread Recipe
This Gluten-Free Cornbread Recipe uses a blend of cornmeal and gluten-free flour along with coconut milk and eggs to create a moist, golden cornbread with a tender crumb. The addition of honey and avocado oil provides a subtle sweetness and moistness, balanced with baking soda and cider vinegar to ensure a good rise and light texture. It is a versatile bread that complements savory meals well.
Ingredients
- 3 cups cornmeal medium or fine grind
- 1 cup all-purpose flour gluten-free
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 1/2 tsp salt sea salt
- 4 egg large
- 1 (15-oz can) coconut milk or 2 cups milk or buttermilk, full-fat
- 2/3 cup avocado oil or melted butter
- 1 Tbsp cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup honey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and grease a large (13” x 9”) casserole dish with oil.
- Stir together the cornmeal, flour, baking soda and sea salt until combined.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, avocado oil, cider vinegar, and eggs. Stir the flour mixture into the bowl with the wet mixture until thick and combined. Pour in the honey (or pure maple syrup) and mix until combined.
- Transfer the cornbread batter to the prepared baking dish and smooth into an even layer.
- Bake 30 to 35 minutes, until cornbread is golden-brown around the edges. Allow bread to cool at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. The best way to tell if a baked good is cooked through is to take its internal temperature. Insert a digital thermometer into the center of the bread. If it is 190 degrees F or higher, it is fully cooked! The ideal temp range for the best results is 190-205 degrees F.
