We like to make this Paleo cornbread in a cast iron skillet
It just feels right making this Paleo “cornbread” in a cast iron skillet. There’s just something a little rustic and authentic about it that makes my little heart happy. We use a smaller cast iron than usual…about an 8 inch skillet will be great. If you don’t have one, no worries. You can use a square baking dish instead. You could even make muffins if you really wanted to. Regardless of what you use, just keep an eye on it in the oven. Remove it when the tops gets golden brown and a toothpick or knife comes out clean.
What gluten-free and grain-free flours do you use in this Paleo “cornbread”?
We’ve used Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free and grain-free flours for years. For this Paleo cornbread recipe, we used their Almond Flour and Coconut Flour. Their Almond Flour is made from non-GMO whole blanched almonds and is super fine, which is perfect for this cornbread! It makes the texture light, while still holding together well. Bob’s Red Mill Coconut Flour is organic and made from the highest quality desiccated coconut. We appreciate that they focus on high quality, minimally processed products and from mill to table. Plus, we love supporting our local partners and Bob’s Red Mill is headquartered in Oregon!
I see corn in the recipe – that’s not Paleo?!
Correct. You’ll also notice that it is an optional ingredient. Sometimes we will indulge with a little corn in our lives, and that’s cool. If you are a lover of cornbread with corn in it like me and Justin, maybe it’s worth the splurge to you. If not, no biggie. Just leave the corn out, and call it good! It’s really that easy!
