CINNAMON CORNBREAD



Cinnamon Cornbread image

From the Family Suppers cookbook which I sent to my swap partner FloridaNative. This is super!! I just had to try it. You can also make it a spicy cornbread by subbing out the cinnamon and adding 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes and reducing the sugar to 3 tbls instead of 1/3 cup. We loved it as cinnamon cornbread! I do not have a skillet, so I melted the butter in an 9-inch round baking stone (first step).

Categories     Breads

Time 40m

Yield 9-12 pieces of cornbread, 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup canola oil
1 1/4 cups stone-ground cornmeal
3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
3 -4 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup 2% low-fat milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
rose water, to taste (optional)
rosemary, to taste (optional)
peppermint oil, to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Oil a 9x9 inch baking pan. Other sizes could probably work too, just watch your baking time so it doesn't burn.
  • Stir all dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
  • Stir all wet ingredients together in a medium bowl.
  • Stir the wet and dry ingredients together. Keep the batter a bit lumpy.
  • Pour batter into pan and sprinkle some extra cinnamon on top, swirling it into the batter slightly.
  • Bake for 20-26 minutes until done. The center should spring back when touched. Let it sit 5-10 minutes before cutting, if you can resist!

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh cornmeal, buttermilk, and butter will give your cornbread the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven: This will help the cornbread rise and develop a crispy crust.
  • Let the cornbread cool before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the cornbread to set.
  • Serve the cornbread with your favorite toppings: Honey, butter, or syrup are all classic choices.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon cornbread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're serving it as a side dish or a snack, this cornbread is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a new cornbread recipe, give this one a try.
