Gluten Free Corn Bread

Thanksgiving is right around the corner and it is my favorite Holiday.  I love getting together with friends and family and the best part is sharing a meal together!  Giving thanks for each other, the nourishment of the food and company and counting our blessing, makes it a special day.  I have such fond  childhood memories of Thanksgiving – sitting at the kids table, playing with my many cousins, fighting over who got the “oyster” from the turkey as Uncle Donald carved and the best part was the after dinner walk – our family is large so these walks were something to see 10 – 20 people walking down the street!

I love corn bread and make it often, but I also make it at Thanksgiving.  With all the GMO corn products, make sure to use organic corn meal and organic corn.  If using a package read the label and make sure that it is GMO free.

 Gluten Free Corn Bread

Ingredients

7/8 cup + 1 Tbl Gluten Free flour
1 Tbl Nature’s Approved™ organic Grape Seed flour
3/4 cup organic, stone-ground cornmeal
2 Tbl sugar
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp sea salt
1 Tbl butter
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup whole buttermilk
1/4 cup melted butter
1 can of creamed corn, preferably GMO free or 2 cups homemade

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

2. Mix the dry ingredients (flours, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt) together in a medium bowl, set aside.

3. Melt the one tablespoon of butter in a 10 inch cast-iron skillet or 8/9 inch round baking , swirling the butter around the pan coating the bottom and sides.

4. Melt ¼ cup butter.

5. In a small bowl, combine the eggs, buttermilk, creamed corn and 1/4 cup butter.

6. Add the egg mixture to the dry mixture and stir until just moistened.

7. Pour batter into the hot skillet or baking pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a wooden toothpick comes out clean.

Cut into slices and serve warm with some good whole milk butter!

This corn bread looks a little darker due to the grape seed flour, but it so moist and the corn kernels really add to the flavor and texture.

    Adding cream of corn sounds like it makes this such a moist and yummy recipe!! I imagine you can make it without the grapeseed flour. Happy Thanksgiving!
