Gluten Free Cornbread

This gluten free cornbread is easy to make from scratch. You can make the best homemade cornbread with cornmeal that is moist and delicious. This recipe is on heavy rotation in our house!

We love to eat this cornbread right out of the oven with lots of butter or I use this recipe for stuffing. I also love to eat my cornbread with some jam for breakfast. The options are endless!

What is this cornbread made from?

I like to use Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Cornmeal. It is a coarser ground cornmeal so it gives the cornbread more texture. Since you will be using fine ground gluten free flour it still has a moist, cake-like texture.

Can you eat cornbread if you are gluten free?

Yes. As long as you are careful to purchase your cornmeal from a vendor that certifies it's gluten free. If you try to use regular cornmeal it is likely processed with wheat flour and will be contaminated.

Be sure to read the label and make sure it's certified gluten free. There may not be gluten in the ingredients list, but it is likely that it was contaminated with gluten while being processed.

Gluten Free Cornbread Ingredients

How do I make gluten free cornbread from scratch?

The process of making this cornbread is the same as regular cornbread. You will just want to make sure you are using certified gluten free ingredients. There will be a seal on the product stating it's gluten free and may also be in bold on the packaging.

Even though your regular cornmeal may not have anything containing gluten listed in the ingredients there is a very high chance the product was processed along with products that have gluten in them. The gluten free seal is very important to look for.
