Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400.  Grease 8x8 pan and sprinkle with cornmeal to keep from sticking.
  • In a large bowl, add dry ingredients: gluten free flour blend, cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt and whisk together until fully incorporated. 
  • In stand mixer or large bowl add: buttermilk, melted butter, egg and whisk together until fully combined.
  • Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients in batches until a thick cornbread batter is formed. 
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center. 
  • Let cool fully before slicing and serving

Notes

This recipe uses a gluten free flour blend. My favorite gluten free flour blend is by Krusteaz because it contains a mix of flours and already contains xanthan gum.  If you are using a gluten free flour blend without xanthan gum, you must add it to the recipe. I love this brand because it can be found on amazon and at Walmart. 
To make gluten free cornbread muffins, add muffin tin liners to a muffin tin and fill each with batter 1/2-2/3 full.  Cooking time may decrease to 18-20 minutes because each muffin is smaller. 
To make this recipe dairy free, substitute the buttermilk with coconut milk and the butter with a vegan butter substitute. 
Does Jiffy Make a Gluten Free Cornbread Mix?  Gluten free cornbread mixes can be found in stores but at this time Jiffy does not make their cornbread mix gluten free.
