Honey Corn Bread with Berry Coulis & Whipped Coconut Cream

It's been such a cold winter for us this year. So last week I made my ground chicken chili with gluten free honey corn bread. We had a decent amount of corn bread left over so I decided to work it into breakfast the next morning. And so was born this Honey Corn Bread with Berry Coulis & Whipped Coconut Cream.

Gluten Free Honey Corn Bread

Ingredients

1 cup organic gluten free cornmeal

1/2 cup brown rice flour

1/2 cup organic corn starch (arrowroot flour/starch works nicely too)

1 Tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup local honey

1 cup whole milk

1/3 cup pasture butter (I love the Kerrigold brand)

2 large free range non GMO eggs

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400F

2. Grease an 8-inch square glass baking dish

3. Place the baking dish in the oven as the oven preheats. Allow the dish to stay in the oven while you mix you batter. Take out of the oven right when you are ready to pour in the batter. The hot dish will allow for a wonderful crispy outer crust.

4. In a mixing bowl mix together all dry ingredients.

5. Add in milk, butter and eggs. Stir until batter is smooth. 

6. Using an oven mitt take the hot dish out of the oven and pour in the batter.

7. Return the pan to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown and the edges are a deep golden brown. 

8. Let cool for a few minutes then cut and serve.

We love to eat this cornbread warm with extra butter and honey drizzled on top.

Whipped Coconut Cream

1 can full fat coconut milk. Chilled in fridge.

1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
