GLUTEN-FREE SKILLET CORNBREAD



Gluten-Free Skillet Cornbread image

Sometimes warm, freshly baked bread is all you want for breakfast-ideally made from dough that doesn't involve activating yeast or kneading. This gluten- and dairy-free skillet cornbread fits the bill. It isn't cakey, like muffins or banana bread, but is mildly sweet and goes perfectly with a cup of tea. It's perfect for lazy mornings if you have leftover squash to stir into the batter. The scallions in the batter may make you consider serving this with dinner, and they can certainly be left out if you want to serve it with jam.

Time 1h10m

Yield One 9-inch skillet

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup nut milk
1 tablespoon chia seeds, ground
1 cup corn grits
1/2 cup gluten-free oat flour
1/4 cup millet flour
2 tablespoons brown rice flour
1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
2 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder
1 cup mashed winter squash
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more to oil skillet
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously oil a 9-inch skillet; set aside. Whisk together the nut milk and chia seeds in a medium bowl to combine; set aside.
  • Grind the corn grits in an electric spice grinder until they're the texture of cornmeal, and add them to another medium bowl. Sift in the oat flour, millet flour, brown rice flour, arrowroot and baking powder, and stir well.
  • Add the squash, oil, salt, maple syrup, 1/4 cup water and scallions to the chia mixture, and whisk to combine. Add the chia mixture to the flour mixture, and stir until just combined. Scrape the dough into the prepared skillet, and gently flatten to fill the pan.
  • Bake the cornbread until a toothpick comes out clean, 28 to 30 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge; place a plate over the skillet, and invert. Slide the cornbread back into the pan with the bottom facing up (to show off the beautiful crust). Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Cornmeal: Use a finely ground cornmeal for a smooth texture and a medium or coarse ground cornmeal for a more rustic texture.
  • Adding Sweetness: Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar in the recipe to suit your taste preferences. You could also substitute honey or maple syrup for a more natural sweetness.
  • Mixing the Batter: Avoid overmixing the batter, as this can result in a dense cornbread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and no streaks of dry ingredients remain.
  • Using a Cast Iron Skillet: If you have one, use a preheated cast iron skillet for baking the cornbread. This will give it a crispy outer crust and a moist interior.
  • Baking Temperature: Keep an eye on the cornbread while it's baking and adjust the temperature if necessary. A lower temperature will produce a softer cornbread, while a higher temperature will result in a crispier crust.

Conclusion:

With its simple ingredients, easy preparation, and delicious taste, this gluten-free cornbread is a must-try for anyone looking for a flavorful and satisfying side dish or snack. Whether you're serving it with chili, soup, or simply enjoying it on its own, this cornbread is sure to be a hit. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and let's get baking!
