EEEKKKK I LOVE THIS RECIPE SO MUCH!!!!! Ok y’all, I’m down here in the South and we LOVE beans and cornbread, right?! I’ve tried a couple times making cornbread but have not been able to get it right… until NOW!! This was a serious hit for my family! Especially my husband!!!
Now the only only thing that might be an issue is the flours are both store bought special items… boo. I know, I know… hope you don’t get mad at me for that. Now, I found the Sprouted Whole Wheat flour at my local health food store and the Sprouted Blue Corn flour at vitacost.com. I didn’t think they were too expensive at all but if you know of a way to make the sprouted flours yourself… do it!!! And then tell me how! 😉
Ok so most cornbread recipes I found are full of fat and high carb white flour and yellow corn flour. This literally has 6 grams of fat for the WHOLE recipe… YES!!!!! And if you cut this into 8 pieces which is very generous you are looking at about 12.5 carbs! That’s it y’all!!! Bring on the beans or the chicken tortilla soup!!
All my Trim Healthy Mama buddies will be happy… except maybe the whole special order flour… 🙁 again, don’t be too mad at me! How about some links to the stuff? Now, these are my affiliate links… you totally can find the sprouted whole wheat flour cheaper for sure! But that’s what it looks like! I think the sprout blue corn flour is actually not too high on amazon!
Once you have the flours this is super easy!!!
Mix the dry ingredients together…
Add the wet ingredients & mix… (the greek yogurt keeps this moist)
Pour into a round lightly lightly greased pie dish or an 8X8 baking dish…
Bake… (this is not the greatest picture)…
If you can, allow to cool for just a little bit.
I ate mine with a delicious bowl of lentil soup!

Oh! I so needed this recipe 2 days ago. Beans were just not the same without cornbread. I’m sure going to make this later on to go with the leftovers!!
I am so super happy with having on plan cornbread!!!!! 🙂
Thank you so much!! Now my hubby can have his southern cornbread dressing (THM Crossover style!) without all the guilt!
You are my hero!!
Haha, so happy to help!!! 🙂
Does it matter if it is blue or yellow corn flour? Pure Living also has a yellow, and it is just a tad cheaper.
Thanks
Hmmmm… I don’t think it would matter if it is sprouted but honestly I really don’t know. :-/
Going to try this when I get flours in 😉 have you tried the the THM jalepeno bread ? It is also delicious 😉
YES!! I love that jalapeno bread recipe!! 🙂
There have been many moments over my year on THM (64 pounds gone forever) that just saying “Yay” wasn’t enough. Eating this cornbread is one of those moments. It tastes like real cornbread. I wish you were here in my kitchen in Kentucky. I would hug you!!!!
YAY!!! HUGS!!!
wonderful recipe- cant wait to try it- I love THM too and am always looking or E recipes, your look great!
I have some plain blue corn meal that I got at my farmers market so not sprouted. Do you knoe if it will change the nutrition info much.
I think this will work but I believe it does have more carbs so just watch your carb amount. 🙂
Thank you! I hope I can find the sprouted flours local so I don’t have to wait too long to make this 😉
Where can I find sprouted blue corn flour?
I found mine at my local health store but you can order on line or try Whole Foods. 🙂
Do you think this will work with the THM GF flour blend? I cannot eat wheat (gluten intolerant) but I do have the sprouted blue corn flour.
Yes, I think it would work!!! I think it would be more moist too!~
I love this! Amazon is out of the blue corn flour so I am going to order some blue corn as an add-on and try to sprout it. I’ll let you all know if it was $5 wasted but I am determined! I’ll follow the technician in the THM book and let you know how that works……….what did I get into LOL!
I think regular blue corn flour is on plan too!! I thought it had to be sprouted but I think it will be ok. It just will have more carbs so watch your carb intake! 🙂
Can you sub blue corn meal for the blue corn flour?
Yep you can!
I made this today to pair with Pearl’s Chili. OMGosh, this is real food, people! It was delicious and filling, not all fluff and air. I made mine in a preheated cast iron skillet. This is going to be a regular for me. I’ll eat it with the different E chilis and soups. I really needed this comfort food tonight. Thank you!
YAY!!!! 🙂
I am on the hunt for blue sprouted corn flour. In the meantime, what do you think about the mesa sprouted flour? The one with lime? Do you think I could sub it out until I get the blue sprouted corn flour? I am making lentils and I am really needing some cornbread lol! Your recipes are awesome 🙂
I think Masa is on plan… I believe Gwen, from Gwen’s Nest created a recipe using it!! You can also use non sprouted Blue Corn or even regular Yellow corn flour it will just have more carbs but in an E it’s ok! 😉
I prefer the texture of corn meal over corn flour. I found some sprouted yellow corn meal online. Would that work in the place of the sprouted blue corn flour?
Either would work!
Will sprouted flour work if it’s not blue?! Just bought some at Whole Foods.
Yes, as long as it’s sprouted you should be good to go!
This may be a silly question but is Purple corn and blue corn the same thing? The site I buy my sprouted flour doesn’t have blue corn only purple…
Hmmm… I think it’s pretty close. If it’s sprouted, I think it’s fine!
