Enjoy delicious Sweet Cornbread Muffins that are gluten-free and contain no added sugar. Perfect for a healthy snack or side dish!
Deliciously Healthy Treats for Everyone!
Sweet Cornbread Muffins are a delightful treat that can be enjoyed at any time of the day. Naturally sweetened with date syrup and applesauce, these muffins offer a healthy, gluten-free, and low-fat option perfect for breakfast or as a side dish. The key ingredient, coarse yellow cornmeal, provides the classic cornbread texture along with a slightly sweet and nutty flavor. Additionally, gluten-free rolled oats add bulk and texture while contributing to the muffins’ fiber content. The unsweetened apple juice and applesauce not only enhance the natural sweetness but also keep the muffins moist and tender.
To achieve the perfect rise and fluffy texture, baking powder and baking soda are essential leavening agents, while apple cider vinegar reacts with the baking soda to ensure a light consistency. These muffins can be enjoyed on their own or paired with a dish like vegan mushroom chili for a comforting meal. With their wholesome ingredients and delicious flavor, Sweet Cornbread Muffins are a wonderful addition to any recipe collection.
Delightfully Fluffy Bites of Sunshine: Indulge Without the Guilt!
I’m going to show you how to make sweet cornbread muffins they are so easy to make and your friends and family will love them I know this because every month we have a potluck and they disappear and they’re so easy to make I like to make them in a blender because I don’t have to clean a mixing bowl and a whisk and as a matter of fact if I.
Wasn’t demonstrating it for you I wouldn’t even have these bowls out everything would go in the blender what I love about it is the blender has measurements on it so I don’t have to dirty and wash a measuring cup so in my blender I have my unsweetened apple juice and then I am going to add my date syrup I love date syrup I can.
Make it myself but I don’t now that you can get organic date syrup even at Walmart but the lines on the blender make it so that I can easily see the exact amount without having to use another measuring cup I’m only using half a cup that’s just about I think two teaspoons or so of date syrup per muffin then I’m.
Going to add my unsweetened applesauce you can buy unsweetened applesauce everywhere and if you have a high powered blender you can even make it yourself and then I have my cornmeal I’m using a medium grind and I always do everything gluten-free even though I have to be gluten-free even before I had to for necessity I always did everything.
Gluten-free because then if there’s one person that can’t have it everyone can enjoy it and it tastes exactly the same frankly so I’m going to add my cornmeal to to my blender and my gluten-free oats my baking powder and baking soda always get aluminum free and if you want to get sodium free you can find that as.
Well and to activate the baking powder and baking soda my apple cider vinegar whoops you don’t want to blend the glass let me tell you I had an experience once I was doing a demonstration in Cleveland where the president of Vitamix was watching and the little circle on the top actually fell in the blender I didn’t know and I blended it that shows.
You how powerful high powered blenders are so now I’m just going to blend everything just for a few seconds that was 5 Seconds to be exact and then I’m going to pour them in my silicone muffin pan these things are great I’ve been using them for years they’re oven safe to 450° although you’ll never bake at that high.
Temperature and whenever you’re doing oilfree baking or cooking which is what I do they just pop right out and I’m going to show you that in just a second also by using a blender I don’t have to use a cookie scoop or other measuring cup I just kind of eyeball it and try to get around the same amount in every one of these you can get these silicone.
Muffin pans on Amazon they range from about $14 to9 $19 they literally last for years and they’re so easy to clean I have some silicone pants that I’ve had over 15 years now you might notice these are darker than traditional cornbread I mean corn is yellow after all and the reason for that is because I’m using date syrup instead of another sweetener.
I just prefer to use date syrup because it’s a whole food and it’s something I can make in my kitchen but if you don’t like the darker color then you can use a lighter sweetener that is transluc like maple syrup or agave but I really prefer to use dates the whole fruit nothing but the whole fruit these aren’t super sweet which is why we can serve them with.
Chili but they are sweet enough that you could enjoy them after a meal as is or sometimes my husband likes to put a fruit sweet and jam on them and toast them so easy to make and they don’t even take very long to bake in the oven only about 22 minutes so you can make them in no time look how easy that was and then just to get it down I do the drop and.
Plop and I place them in the oven however I can bake these later because I already made a tray now normally I’ll put these on a pretty tray for serving but since our pot look is tomorrow I’m just going to store them in a good Tupperware and you can see they pop out so easily as long as you let them.
Cool a lot of times for potlucks I’ll cut these in half because there’s so many people and I don’t want to make more than two batches they smell really good they’re a little bit crispy on the top I like the cornmeal so much because it it has like a toothsome that just oats don’t I could almost just wipe.
These with a paper towel but of course I will wash these but that’s how nice it is when you don’t use oil cleanup really is a breeze but the only piece of advice I have for you anytime you bake anything whether you use silicone or not let it cool and that’s the easiest way to get it out of the pan you can see that this is almost completely clean so there you.
Have it very easy very delicious very healthy sweet cornbread muffins
