Gluten-Free Sweet Cornbread Bundt Cake – #BundtBakers

This sweet honey butter drizzled gluten-free cornbread Bundt is the perfect marriage between cake and cornbread. It truly is the best of both worlds, especially for those living a gluten-free lifestyle.

Hey there everyone, don’t go getting all freaked out because the words gluten-free just appeared in one of my recipes. Focus more on the words cornbread and cake because this lovely Bundt is a sweet honey butter drizzled marriage of those two words. Never, ever, ever, ever will I attempt to switch over to what I like to call the gluten-free crazy side. However, I do truly have a few friends that are actually gluten-intolerant and I would like to experiment with a few new ingredients to see if perhaps I can make my life a bit easier when it comes to feeding them on holidays and at parties. As for those individuals who are just living a gluten-free lifestyle for some insane imagined nutritional reason, well, they can just go fly a kite. I’m not changing my entire way of baking and spending an insane amount of money on specialty products just for those kookooforcocoapuffs.

Here’s the thing ya’ll, these days it’s pretty simple to make baked goods which are gluten-free thanks to all of the new fancy-dancy products which are now readily available at our local markets. They’re pretty much everywhere and quite easy to find. Fair warning though, even though these specialty products are somewhat easy to locate, you need to be prepared to spend an absolute fortune on them. For example, Bob’s Red Mill has a lovely line of gluten-free products that come in rather small packages, with all of the appropriate food warnings posted on their labels. This is great because you know exactly what you’re getting and you can buy it without fear of having it sit around in your pantry for years because it’s only available in what seems like a twenty-pound bag big enough to feed a sow. However, it’s bad because you’re gonna pay five bucks for that itty-bitty bag of glutenless, paleo, or organic specialty ingredient.

As for the cornmeal in this recipe, if you truly are gluten-intolerant, you probably will want to go ahead and purchase another itty-bitty bag of specialty cornmeal while you’re at it as well. Even though cornmeal is not made with ingredients which contain gluten, most companies choose not to label it with a gluten-free label because they cannot guarantee that it does not have trace amounts due to being made in the same facilities which also process products with gluten. Sigh. This looks like it could become some pretty expensive cornbread by the time everything is said and done with. Sorry y’all, if you want no-hassle baked goods which are also gluten-free, then you’re gonna need to be prepared to pay for them. That’s how it works. For those of you who aren’t kookooforcocoapuffs, you can just go ahead and swap in plain ol’ all-purpose flour and save yourself some well-earned money and much-needed pantry storage space.

Suggestions:

  • Make sure to use gluten-free 1-to-1 baking flour in this recipe, which has just the right formulated mixture to replace all-purpose flour without any problems.
  • If you are worried about your cornmeal possibly containing gluten, make sure to look for one that especially notes that it is indeed gluten-free.
  • Warming the honey and the butter in this recipe helps to incorporate them into the cornbread and sweet honey butter drizzle. Each microwave will cook at a different rate, so you may need to adjust the time it takes to melt these two ingredients together.

Improvements:

  • Replace the sweet honey butter drizzle with warmed peach, blueberry, or strawberry preserves.
