Corny cornbread might be the perfect side dish, and from what I’ve seen, fresh homemade cornbread is always a crowd favorite.

My husband came up with this flavorful creation using my 20-year old treasured home-style cornbread recipe. He proudly calls it corny cornbread, so it is only fair to stick with that name for this post. This sweet, tender bread has little bits of corn that pleasantly surprise you bite after bite.

I acquired a passion for cornbread at a very young age. I would order fresh homemade cornbread with honey-butter from a restaurant my family went to weekly in my teens. It was almost as good as dessert!

About a year ago my husband suggested we add frozen corn to the cornbread batter; I was not so sure about this…but I have to admit, his idea is a tasty success.

 

Corn Bread

Slice cornbread in squares or rectangles and serve with butter, a non-dairy substitute, honey, or honey-butter.

 

This recipe is easily made dairy, gluten, and egg-free as well.

**I prefer these ready-made gluten-free flour blends for the gluten-free version of this recipe:

King Arthur Measure For Measure Gluten-Free Flour

Bob’s Red Mill One To One Baking Flour

Pamela’s Artesian Gluten-Free Flour

 

To Make Corny Cornbread You Will Need These Ingredients:

  • Yellow cornmeal
  • Flour ~ gluten-free if needed
  • Sugar
  • Baking powder
  • Salt
  • Oil
  • Egg or egg replacer ~ two egg whites are also an option
  • Milk or a non-dairy substitute
  • Corn ~ frozen or canned

To test if the cornbread is done, I insert a knife in the center of the cornbread. The knife should come out clean.

 

Fresh cornbread is delicious with just about anything, but we especially like it with:

Be sure to try some honey-butter on your corny cornbread too. Just mix some honey into softened butter.
