I’ve never tried cornmeal until I met my boyfriend. He introduced it to me. The first time I ate it, it was at Whole Foods. It was really tasty. I of course checked the ingredients and was like well it’s not 100% healthy but it is a better option to eat when you want a snack.
Only Four Main Ingredients
Cornmeal is a staple in some households and/or it is a treat during the holidays. I know that many families make cornmeal during Thanksgiving and why not try a healthier alternative. I am not saying all the ingredients in cornmeal are unhealthy but sometimes you may find some unnecessary ingredients in store bought ones. Instead make a homemade delicious tasty cornmeal at home with only 4 main ingredients.
It is up to you whether you want to include nuts in your cornmeal and/or you may want to choose other types of nuts of your choice. Any nuts will do the work and will add a great aroma and crunch to the cornmeal. You may opt out of adding anything and just keeping it original.
*For additional dietary restrictions that you or someone may have, I have made this recipe suitable for anyone following a paleo and a keto diet. Check the Tips* section down below the recipe for reference for available substitutions.
This cornmeal bread will be your new favourite treat. I haven’t had cornmeal bread in a while and I must say I have indulged in such a good treat.
Can’t wait for you to all try this recipe with your friends and family. It won’t disappoint! Instead, maybe cornmeal will become a staple at your home and you’ll be making it more often, not just on holidays.
