I have trouble with wheat and have switched to corn. How to make cornbread without wheat flour?

Answer 1

You can use cornflour, the kind used in tortillas (Masa Harina), it has some bind to it, even a potato starch will help, you need a bit of strength to hold the cormeal in the batter together.

I am a former chef and do alot of vegetarian dishes, and if you have a store that sells bulk food, were you fill your own bag or try a health food or natural foods store for both the cornflour and potato starch, they both are good substitutes for wheat flour, even rice or barley flours are a good choice.

I live in Canada and we have a chain of bulk food stores were you can buy a scoop of this and that, I always have a few of each around the house, in the US or UK it will be better to find a store that sells the flours in a bag or some grocery stores do.

Answer 2

Corn Bread
Gluten-Free, Vegetarian

A wonderful gluten-free dressing starts with a delicious gluten-free cornbread. This version is perfect alongside a steaming bowl of stew or chili. If making stuffing, prepare the cornbread a day ahead, cut into 1-inch cubes and allow to stale overnight.

Serves 6
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup corn meal
1/2 cup soy flour
1/2 cup brown rice flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 egg
1 cup milk

Preheat oven to 350°F. Place the butter in a 9x9 square baking pan or in a small cast iron skillet. Put the pan in the preheating oven until butter is melted. Remove from oven and tilt the pan back and forth to coat. Set aside.

Mix corn meal, soy flour, brown rice flour, salt, brown sugar and baking soda together. Add the egg, milk and melted butter. Combine with a few strokes, not overbeating. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.

hope this helps. enjoy.

Answer 3

Just use all cornmeal and no flour.

My cornbread recipe uses 2 cups of cornmeal and no flour. It makes it very crumbly. People who don't like it so crumbly replace some of the cornmeal with wheat. But that wouldn't be you.

Answer 4

unique fajitas are made with flour tortillas, in my view I even have in no way had wheat tortillas so i could no longer inform you which ones is suitable. Corn is greater for tacos. I desire flour on burritos besides.

Answer 5

Corn flour along with the corn meal.
