Hi! I was just going to post this and and handful of other gluten-free recipes for someone who was looking for wheat-free ideas... The xantham gum and specialty flours can be found at health food stores or Whole Foods.
Gluten Free Cornbread
1 1/2 cups cornmeal or polenta 1/2 cup gluten free flour mix* 1 tsp xanthan gum 2 tbls sugar (this I leave out as I don't like sweet) 3 tsps g/f baking powder 1/2 tsp salt (I only put in 1/4 tsp) 1 1/4 cups soy or rice milk 1/4 cup canola or olive oil 2 large egg whites
* G/F flour mix - combine 2 cups white rice flour, 1/2 cup potato flour and 1/2 cup arrowroot or tapioca flour. (Use as required)
Preheat oven to 425 deg F. Grease loaf pan
1. In a large mixing bowl stir together cornmeal, flour mix, xanthan gum, sugar, baking powder and salt.
2. Make a well in the centre and put in the milk, oil and egg or egg whites. Mix well, then beat vigorously for 30 seconds.
3. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 mins or until the bread begins to pull away from the sides of the pan.
