[...] adolescent. Just look. And the only reason it wasn’t even messier is because I have made many types of gluten-free cornbread in the last 7 years – first unsuccessfully, and then successfully. [...]

I have just made this bread for my other half, who cannot eat wheat breads and struggles with wheat gluten. We live in the UK, and the bread alternatives are expensive and are not at all like bread. I don’t have any real experience in baking per se, but I saw this and thought I would give it a go. This receipe is fantastic, very easy to follow. The finished bread just melts in your mouth and tastes delicious. I will keep this recipe forever and use it for all basic cornmeal bread recipes. Now….back to eating my lovely bread. Thank you Nicole.

Not only does this make awesome bread it makes fantastic muffins. A dozen perfect little gf corn muffins! I fed these to my parents and they couldn’t even tell that they were gluten free. LOL

Hi, Eva,
I understand how you feel. There is not only a big intellectual learning curve when you’re first starting out, but you’re also mourning, in a way, your old life. It gets easier and easier. I’m so glad you had success with the cornmeal bread, and I promise you’ll have many, many other successes. It becomes second nature quite suddenly. I’m glad you found us.
Warmly,
Nicole

Hi,
I am still recovering from the shock of having two coeliacs in the family. It probably takes a while to get used to all the things you cannot cook with any more.
So it was a nice surprise to find glutenfreeonashoerstring.com and my first attempt making cornmeal bread turned out delicious. Thank you very much. I will come back to you your site to have a go at the other recipes.

Hi, Amy,
This is actually not cornbread. It’s cornmeal bread, much more a loaf bread. I have posted a recipe for cornbread in the past – just click on the Blue Plate Specials page and it will link you right to it. I agree that cornmeal doesn’t need too much help! Thanks for posting…
Warmly,
Nicole

We love cornbread at our house so we will have to try your version. I am sugar-free so I use agave or some other sugar substitute. Your scant 1/4 cup measure sounds right on – there is a natural sweetness to the cornmeal that is yummy and too much sugar would overpower it. Love your picture, too!

Hi, Kar!
If you find good, workable substitutes, post them here! I love it.
