Greek Yogurt Cornbread

Kelly Jensen
This Greek Yogurt Cornbread recipe is light, fluffy, and ready in 30 minutes. A great vegetarian side dish to eat with chili or stew, or just enjoy with a little honey and butter for breakfast.  It's a little sweet, a little spicy, and totally delicious.

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 sunflower oil
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt I used plain nonfat yogurt

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes plus extra for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish, and set aside.
  • Mix the Wet Ingredients: in a large bowl, add the sunflower oil, Greek Yogurt, corn, eggs, and chili flakes. Mix well with a wooden spoon to combine.
  • Combine the Dry Ingredients: in a medium bowl, add the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. With a clean spoon, mix well to combine.
  • Make the Batter: Take the bowl with your dry ingredients and mix them into the wet. Fold well to make a thick batter. Pour batter into the baking dish. Top with extra chili flakes to garnish.
  • Bake: Place baking dish in the oven, and bake cornbread for 20-25 minutes until lightly browned on top. Test doneness with a toothpick: place toothpick in the center of the cornbread, when the cornbread is fully cooked the toothpick should come out clean.
