Description

This is an easy, quick recipe for applesauce cornbread that's dense, and adjustably sweet. It will smell great as it bakes and comes out with a great golden crust. It can accompany anything. I love it served with salad, soup, or chili. Add herbs for extra flavor.

Ingredients

cooking spray
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup fine cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup skim milk
2 large eggs
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly spray an 8x8-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
2 In a bowl, mix together flour, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In a separate bowl, stir together milk, eggs, and applesauce. Fold the wet mixture into the dry; mix together well. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until puffed and brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
