HEALTHY CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Combine dry ingrients and mix.

• Bake in preheated oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes (adjust to your oven).
• Let cool and cut into 20 squares.

SWEET SOUTHERN CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place two 8-cavity mini loaf pans in the oven to heat up.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, cake flour, sugar and baking powder.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, oil, eggs and salt to a uniform color. Quickly but gently fold the liquid mixture into the dry mixture. It should be a loose batter, not a dough.
• Carefully remove the loaf pans from the oven and quickly spray with cooking spray.
• Divide the batter evenly among 12 cavities of the loaf pans and bake until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 28 to 30 minutes. Rotate the pans 180 degrees halfway through baking.
• Immediately turn the cornbread loaves out of the pans onto a cooling rack to cool. This will also ensure they build a crisp crust.

THE ULTIMATE HEALTHY CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F, and coat an 8"-square pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter, egg, and vanilla. Stir in the Greek yogurt, mixing until no large lumps remain. Stir in the honey. Alternate between adding the cornmeal mixture and milk, beginning and ending with the cornmeal mixture, and stirring just until incorporated. (For best results, add the cornmeal mixture in 3 equal parts.)
• Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake at 350°F for 18-20 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden and the center feels firm to the touch. Cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. (For the best texture, let it cool completely to room temperature.)
