Gluten Free Cornbread

Ingredients

200g polenta
284ml buttermilk
25g butter
3 medium eggs, beaten
1 tsp. gluten-free baking powder
¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda
70g tinned sweetcorn, drained

Method

Step 1 Toast the polenta in a dry frying pan for 4 minutes, until small sections start to turn golden brown.

Step 2 Tip half of the polenta into a mixing bowl and add the buttermilk. Mix well before covering with a piece of parchment paper and leave to soak for two hours.

Step 3 Preheat your oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7.

Step 4 Melt the butter before adding it with the leftover polenta to the mixing bowl containing the polenta that’s been soaking in the buttermilk.

Step 5 Add the salt, eggs, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and sweetcorn. Give it a good stir before transferring the mixture to an ovenproof frying pan.

Step 6 Heat the frying pan on the hob and let it sizzle for five minutes before putting the whole pan into the oven. Bake for fifteen minutes, until the cornbread is firm in the middle.

Step 7 Allow to cool before cutting into pieces.
