Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup rice milk
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 3/4 cup gluten-free all-purpose baking flour
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup cornflour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil, plus more for pans
  • 1/3 cup agave nectar
  • 1/3 cup applesauce
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly grease a 7 by 4 by 3-inch loaf pan with oil.

Pour the rice milk and apple cider vinegar into a small bowl, but do not stir; set aside. This will create your "buttermilk."

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, cornflour, baking powder, baking soda, xanthan gum, and salt. Add the oil, agave nectar, applesauce, and vanilla to the dry ingredients. Stir the batter until well combined. Pour in the "buttermilk," and mix gently until the ingredients are fully incorporated and a slightly grainy batter is formed.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle with some kosher salt. Bake the cornbread on the center rack for 34 minutes, rotating the pan 180 degrees after 20 minutes. The cornbread will bounce slightly when pressed and a toothpick inserted in the center will come out clean. Let the cornbread stand in the pan for 20 minutes, then gently run a knife around the edge of the bread. Cover the top of the pan with a cutting board, and invert onto the board. Carefully lift the pan away and re-invert the cornbread onto another cutting board. Either cut and serve warm, or wait until it is completely cool before storing. Cover the uncut cornbread with plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.

    This was delicious... a little too salty for our taste, but very moist and delish.
    **Don't use Rice Dream rice milk, tho, as it's made with barley and not really gluten free. Myself and my sons had horrible reactions to it for the longest time until I found this out.

    Easy, light and summery! You could easily use just about any fruit next time we will add strawberries. we used zylotal in place of sugar which worked perfectly, can't wait to try it again.

    I think this recipe is FANTASTIC! I have a ton of food allergies and was so thrilled to find a cornbread recipe that did not have gluten, dairy, eggs or refined sugar in it! None of which I can have. And the bread comes out cooked all the way through. Many gluten free recipes do not really cook all the way through. Yes, this recipe is moist (referring to the comments below, but I think the final product is delicious! If you have a ton of food allergies like I do you'll love it! Note: I used 1 cup of cornmeal not 1/2 cup of cornflour and 1/2 cup of cornmeal because all I had on hand was cornmeal. I will make this again and again even for my non-gluten free friends:-. It's a keeper!
