EQUIPMENT NEEDED

  • Cast iron skillet, 9x9 pan, or muffin tin

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup gluten-free flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup unsweetened dairy free milk
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ cup avocado or olive oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400° Fahrenheit. If using cast iron, place the skillet in the oven while it preheats.
  • Whisk together the gluten free flour, cornmeal, baking powder, coconut sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the egg, dairy free milk, honey, and oil to the dry ingredients and whisk together just until combined.
  • Pour into the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Substitutions

  • Dairy-free milk: any unsweetened variety (almond, oat, cashew, coconut)
  • Coconut sugar: swap 1:1 for white, cane, or brown sugar
Storage
  • Counter: airtight, 3–4 days
  • Fridge: up to 1 week
  • Freezer: up to 3 months, wrapped tightly
  • Reheat: microwave 20–30 sec, oven at 350°F for 10 min, or skillet for crispy edges
