Using Paleo-friendly ingredients,our friends at PaleoHacks created a cornbread recipe to cure your pumpkin fix all season long. Made grain-free and with zero added sugar or oil, this recipe yields the thickest, and creamiest bread. The pumpkin adds just the suitable amount of moisture to the bread to give it that melt-in-your-mouth consistency. Spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg,you get a tiny hint of spice in each bite that makes you wonder what's in it.
Almond flour gives the bread that cornbread-like texture. P.
S: Coconut will not work as it soaks up too much moisture, but any nut-based flour will do.
This Pumpkin "Cornbread" recipe is perfect in the morning with a spread of grass-fed butter or a drizzle of coconut oil with a cup of coffee. You can also luxuriate in it with a warm bowl of chili for a cozy night in. From PaleoHacks Pumpkin CornbreadNotes You can also manufacture this in muffin tins for portable treats!
