Sweet Whole Wheat Cornbread
This sweet cornbread, made with whole wheat flour, is a quick and easy side dish for Thanksgiving, but you can serve it year-round instead of rolls. And for a fun spin, see below for directions on how to make this Apple Cheddar Cornbread.
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour use wheat/gluten-free, if needed
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1 cup low fat milk (or use any variety)
- 1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8 x 8-inch baking pan thoroughly with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients and then add the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined with no lumps (don’t overmix), and transfer it to the baking dish.
- Bake it for 30 minutes or until it is golden brown and a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Alternatively, fill a muffin tin with the batter and bake for 20 minutes.
