This recipe omits the corn but doesn’t skimp the flavor! Regular cornbread contains 10 times the carbs. Enjoy this cornbread, guilt-free with your favorite chili, stew, or smoked ribs.
LOW-CARB CORNBREAD MADE WITH ALMOND FLOUR VERSES CORN
For years I served my stew with traditional cornbread as bribery. The issue was that the oldest two LOVE stew and asked for it often. The only thing that got the younger three to eat the stew without complaining was knowing that there would be cornbread when they finished their very meager serving of stew. Fast-forward to today - The same thing, but I now serve a low-carb, grain-free, gluten-free, and corn-free cornbread, and yes, the three youngest still don't love stew.
I know it sounds strange to have a cornbread recipe without corn. It works because I use almond flour versus cornmeal which both have a grainy texture. For my family, I use vanilla extract as the flavoring in this bread. Believe it or not, there is something called Organic Sweet Corn extract. Who knew?!? If you want a corn flavor, use 1 tsp of the corn extract and omit the vanilla extract.
THIS RECIPE IS SO QUICK AND EASY TO MAKE
This cornbread is so quick and easy to make! Let me break it down for you.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease an 8x11” baking dish; set aside.
Place ½ cup of melted butter, 5 eggs, 2 Tbsp Choc Zero Maple Pecan Syrup, 3 Tbsp Swerve Granular, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract (or corn extract), in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Mix with a handheld mixer until well incorporated. Add in the 1¾ blanched almond flour, 1 tsp baking powder, and ¼ tsp Real Salt.
Pour this with the first set of ingredients and mix again with the hand mixer until everything is well incorporated and smooth.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the "corn" bread is set in the middle. Serve warm with butter and Choc zero maple syrup.
You can also double this recipe and put it in a half sheet pan with 2" sides. I love this pan!
To make it paleo, you can use real maple syrup and coconut sugar.
