A tender, moist gluten-free cornbread packed with juicy sweet corn kernels, perfect for pairing with chili or enjoying as a cozy snack. This recipe uses simple pantry staples and delivers a flavorful, non-dry crumb.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup gluten-free yellow cornmeal
  • 3/4 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 cup sweet corn kernels, fresh or frozen and thawed
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease your baking pan or skillet thoroughly to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until evenly combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs until slightly frothy. Add the melted butter, sour cream, and honey; stir gently until blended.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the sweet corn kernels gently until evenly distributed.
  6. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top gently.
  7. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, starting to check at 25 minutes. The top should be golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let the cornbread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Do not skip the sour cream as it is key for moistness. Use room temperature eggs for better blending. Fold ingredients gently to avoid a dense texture. Use fresh or thawed frozen corn kernels; avoid canned corn to prevent sogginess. Grease pan well to ensure easy release. If oven runs hot, tent with foil halfway through baking to prevent over-browning.
