My husband has been nagging me for years to make him Cornbread.  Traditional Cornbread is an American recipe that is usually associated with the south end of the US. So after a lot of trial and error, I finally came up with this recipe, that incorporates creamed corn and has a slightly sweet taste. Perfect to serve with soups, casseroles or a really hearty chilli as an alternative to bread and butter and can be made into a full loaf or smaller muffins.

You can purchase Polenta from the cereal section of your local supermarket – you usually find it where you find the Traditional Oats.

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees and grease a muffin tray or loaf tin.

  2. Mix the polenta, flour, sugar, salt, butter and eggs until well combined, then add the creamed corn and milk.

  3. Spoon mixture into muffin tray or pour into loaf tin.

Recipe Hints and Tips:

  • Cornbread is suitable to freeze for up to two months.
