The above muffins are the best cornbread GF and oil Free muffins I have ever had!! The key is do not over cook! GREAT.
Makes 12:
1 and 1/2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
1 cup plain almond milk
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup cornmeal (the fine kind)
1 cup oat flour (I grind in my food processor)
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup of corn kernels (I defrosted some frozen ones)
Directions:
Mix the flax seed and milk and let sit for 5 whole minutes (important!). Preheat oven to 375F. Line muffin tin (normal size) with 12 liners.
In large bowl stir applesauce and maple syrup. Stir in baking soda, baking powder, salt--mixing well. Then add the cornmeal and oat flour and flax/milk mixture. Stir well , but don't over mix. Fold in the corn.
Divide evenly into tin--(I used about 1/3 cup scoop for each. Bake 15-16 minutes until toothpick in center is about clean (doesn't have to be totally clean--but mostly---you can experiment. Mine came out great right around 16 minutes.
Below is another recipe which came out very dry---I think it needs more applesauce . The one below has oil however. I threw it out since it was so dry. .....whereas the one above is great.
This was way to dry---I may have overcooked it--try at your own risk. Will have to experiment.
I like this because it is an easy way to have GF cornbread!Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon flax meal + 2 1/2 tablespoons water
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk + 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 1/2 cups organic fine cornmeal
- 1/2 cup oat flour (used GF)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1–3 tablespoons coconut palm sugar, depending on how sweet you want your bread
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (melted) or canola oil or more!!! This can be a bit on dry side especially
- if you over cook it. Better perhaps to cook less or add mORE OIL
Preheat to 400F. Line 8 by 8 with parchment paper. Mix flax and water and place in frig for ten minutes. Do the same with the milk and vinegar. Meanwhile mix dry ingredients in large bowl--cornmeal, oat flour, bk powder, salt, bak soda. After ten minutes add the flax mix and the milk mixture and applesauce and sugar and oil. Let sit a few minutes giving the baking soda time to cause it to rise. Carefully place in pan and cook for 22 minutes (possibly less or more--you want toothpick clean in center---all depends how dry you like it) 22 minutes was really a bit too long for me (I did cook it in a glass pan and it can differ if you cook in metal. Next time less for me or more oil)
