Gluten-Free Cornbread
- 1/4 cup shortening (use a non-hydrogenated shortening), plus more for greasing the pan
- 140 grams all-purpose gluten-free flour mix
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon psyllium husk
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk (you can use non-dairy milk, if you want)
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- Prepare to cook.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-9-by-2-inch pan.
- Mix the dry ingredients.
- Sift the flour into a large bowl.
- Add the sugar, baking powder, psyllium husk and salt and stir.
- Cut in the shortening.
- Cut the shortening into the flour mixture the way you would when making pie dough.
- You should end up with walnut-size pieces in a sandy flour.
- Add the wet ingredients.
- Combine the eggs and milk in a small bowl.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the liquid.
- Stir with a rubber spatula until everything is combined.
- Finish the batter.
- Stir in the cornmeal, whisking fast, until it is just combined.
- Do not overstir.
- Bake the cornbread.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake until the sides of the cornbread are slightly shrinking from the pan and a toothpick comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
