LOW FAT, SUGAR FREE CORNBREAD



Low Fat, Sugar Free Cornbread image

This is a low cal modification of my mom's cornbread recipe. Using Splenda instead of sugar and "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Lite" instead of butter or oil, makes a big difference in calories but not in taste. I just made some to serve with chili and it was great!

This is my own variation of a great healthy recipe published by Dr. Dean Ornish. I love this with bean soups. The 7x9 pan fits perfectly in the toaster oven. A jar of applesauce goes bad quickly in my home, so I started buying the 6 packed individuals.

EASY ALMOST FAT FREE CORNBREAD



Easy Almost Fat Free Cornbread image

I wanted cornbread for dinner and was having a hard time finding a good low fat recipe. Many included corn kernels and my family won't eat that in cornbread! I came across this one in a Weight Watchers cookbook, though this recipe was listed in order for you to make it to use in cornbread stuffing. Therefore I was worried that it would not be good to eat on its own. But it was tasty! And it does not have the funny consistency that some fat free baked goods do. It makes 12 servings and each serving is only 2 WW points!

We are trying to cook healthier this year. This cornbread uses cooked pumpkin, squash or sweet potato puree. A 4 oz. or 41/2 oz. jar of baby food (check to make sure it is just puree) works well in this recipe. This gives the cornbread a deep golden color.

Tips for Making the Best Fat-Free Cornbread:

  • Use buttermilk and eggs: Buttermilk and eggs add moisture and richness to the cornbread, helping to compensate for the lack of fat. Make sure to use fresh buttermilk for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a tough, dense cornbread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a hot oven: A hot oven is essential for getting a crispy crust and a moist, fluffy interior. Preheat the oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before baking the cornbread.
  • Let the cornbread cool before slicing: Letting the cornbread cool for a few minutes before slicing will help to prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Fat-free cornbread is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional cornbread. By following these tips, you can make a cornbread that is moist, fluffy, and flavorful, without any of the guilt. So next time you're looking for a side dish that is both satisfying and nutritious, give fat-free cornbread a try.
