I love a good Cornbread. However most Cornbread is made with regular flour, which means it has Gluten. So I decided it was time to learn how to make Cornbread that tastes super delicious and is Gluten Free by using Almond Flour!

Gluten Free Cornbread FAQs

Is Cornbread Normally Gluten Free?

No, typically it’s made with some sort of flour with gluten in it.

Is Cornmeal Gluten Free?

Cornmeal is naturally gluten free since it’s made from corn kernels. However not all packages are gluten free if they’re produced by manufacturers that also process wheat on their machines. It’s always best to check the label first.

Can I use a different type of flour instead of Almond Flour?

I have not tested this with any other type of flour. Almond Flour works best for this recipe.

Can I use Buttermilk or Milk instead of Almond Milk?

Yes you can, I just chose to make it dairy free.

Do I have to bake this in a Cast Iron Skillet?

You can bake this in an 8×8 or 9×9 baking pan or even a muffin tin.

How do I store Gluten Free Cornbread?

It tastes the best when it’s freshly baked, but you can store it in an airtight container on the counter for up to 2 days. You can also refrigerate it for up to 5 days.

Can I freeze Cornbread?

Yes, place it in a freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months.

    This looks good, and exactly the simple ingredients I was looking for! I do not own a cast iron skillet. Would this work in a regular glass baking dish (8×8)?

    I like the gluten free recipe and the fact that it is prepared in a cast iron skillet, I am wondering, do I preheat the cast iron skillet and then pour in the mix, as is true of most Southern skillet cornbread recipes, to sear the bottom and edges?
