Rosemary cornbread (gluten free)

This is a lovely cornbread but looks a little messy when cut which is why I decided to bake mine in a mini loaf tin. A mini muffin tin would work just as well! The recipe makes about 24 if cooked this way. 

ROSEMARY CORNBREAD (GLUTEN FREE)

Wet mixture

2 tbsp chia seeds

1 egg yolk

1 tbsp white vinegar

2 tbsp pure Maple syrup

2 1/4 C coconut milk (the drinking kind from a carton)

Dry mixture

1 1/2 C fine polenta/cornmeal

1/2 C quinoa flour

1 tsp cream of tartar

1/2 tsp bicarbonate soda/baking soda

1 tsp sweet paprika (not hot!)

2 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves, stripped from the stem

1. In a small bowl, combine chia seeds, yolk, vinegar and Maple syrup. Whisk to combine

2. Add coconut milk and whisk well. Leave to sit for 10 minutes

3. In a separate, larger bowl add all ingredients for the dry mixture and stir together very well 

4. Tip wet mixture into dry mixture and stir gently to combine

5. Line baking dish, deep tray or muffin tins with baking paper/parchment paper and fill with mixture. You don't want the mixture to be more than about an inch deep. If baking in one large dish, the dimensions should be around 7"x 9.5"/18cm x 24cm

6. Bake in a moderate oven (180°C/350°F) - 15 minutes for mini muffins or 30 minutes for a large cornbread

7. Check and return to oven if not firm all over

8. Lift out by the paper and cool on rack, removing the paper gently after 5 minutes

Enjoy ❤️

Hot tip!

🔥 Freeze what you can't eat on the day. Reheat in the microwave for a short burst and then in the air fryer for about 7 minutes for a gorgeous crispy exterior

🔥 Break cornbread into crumbs and air fry or pan fry for lovely, crunchy breadcrumbs to scatter over soup or vegetables

🔥 Coconut milk can be replaced with any other tolerated milk

🔥 Replace the quinoa flour with plain or wholemeal flour if you prefer

🔥 To keep parchment paper/baking paper in place prior to filling, scrunch it in a ball before laying it into the tray
