I found this recipe on the blog "Ponderings from Picket Fence Cottage" as part of a post on whole foods. It has a really unique flavor, not too "corny" and with a slight tang from the sour cream. The texture is excellent, tender yet firm. Hope you enjoy it.

Time 30m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup cornmeal
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup nonfat plain yogurt
3/4 cup 2% low-fat milk
2 eggs
1 tablespoon unsweetened applesauce
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Coat 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Place in oven.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Whisk together cornmeal, flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • In separate bowl, whisk together yogurt, milk, eggs, applesauce, and honey.
  • Mix wet and dry ingredients.
  • Remove pan from oven and carefully spoon batter into cups. (I fill them about 3/4 full).
  • Bake for 20 minutes, until golden brown.

Tips:

  • Use buttermilk: Buttermilk adds a tangy flavor and helps to tenderize the cornbread.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cornbread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven: A hot oven helps to create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.
  • Let the cornbread cool before serving: This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
  • Serve the cornbread with butter, honey, or your favorite toppings: Cornbread is delicious on its own or served with a variety of toppings.

Conclusion:

Whole wheat cornbread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy bread recipe, give whole wheat cornbread a try!
