Homemade Sourdough Cornbread

If you are a fan of cornbread, this sourdough recipe is one you’ll want to try. While it makes an 8×8 pan, I often find myself doubling the batch to a 9×13, simply because my children devour it. It does well as leftovers as well, or made for a crowd.

Homemade Sourdough Cornbread

  • 3/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup sourdough discard
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 2 eggs

Start by making your sourdough sponge of sourdough discard, milk, flour, and cornmeal. Let sit 6-8 hours. Add remaining ingredients, mixing well.

Por into a greased 8×8” pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 25-35 min.
Serve with honey, agave or homemade jam. My grandmother loves to eat her cornbread topped with a bit of molasses. 🙂
