EASY ALMOST FAT FREE CORNBREAD



Easy Almost Fat Free Cornbread image

I wanted cornbread for dinner and was having a hard time finding a good low fat recipe. Many included corn kernels and my family won't eat that in cornbread! I came across this one in a Weight Watchers cookbook, though this recipe was listed in order for you to make it to use in cornbread stuffing. Therefore I was worried that it would not be good to eat on its own. But it was tasty! And it does not have the funny consistency that some fat free baked goods do. It makes 12 servings and each serving is only 2 WW points!

LOW FAT, SUGAR FREE CORNBREAD



Low Fat, Sugar Free Cornbread image

This is a low cal modification of my mom's cornbread recipe. Using Splenda instead of sugar and "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Lite" instead of butter or oil, makes a big difference in calories but not in taste. I just made some to serve with chili and it was great!

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 30m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup flour
1 cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup Splenda sugar substitute, for baking,not packets
1 egg
1 1/4 cups nonfat milk
1/4 cup melted i can't believe it not butter light margarine

Steps:

  • Combine ingredients in a large bowl, then mix by hand until batter is just moistened.
  • Pour into 9 large muffin cups or a 9x9 cake pan sprayed with Pam.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees F.

Tips for Making Low-Fat Cornbread

  • Use low-fat or non-fat milk instead of whole milk. This will reduce the fat content of the cornbread without sacrificing flavor.
  • Use a blend of whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour. Whole wheat flour will add fiber and nutrients to the cornbread, while all-purpose flour will help it rise properly.
  • Add some sweetness with honey or agave nectar. This will help balance out the cornmeal's natural bitterness. You can also add a teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cornbread tough and dense. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a preheated oven. This will help it rise evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Let the cornbread cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it hold its shape.

Conclusion

These are just a few tips for making low-fat cornbread. With a little experimentation, you can create a delicious and healthy cornbread that everyone will enjoy. Low-fat cornbread is a healthier alternative to traditional cornbread. It is lower in fat and calories, and it is also a good source of fiber. Low-fat cornbread can be enjoyed as a side dish or as a snack. It is also a great way to use up leftover cornmeal.
