SUGAR-FREE CORNBREAD

Sugar-Free Cornbread image

I had to experiment a lot to get this perfect, fluffy, and wholesome cornbread recipe, but I finally came up with one I like! Not only is it delicious, but it's gluten-free and uses Splenda® instead of sugar. If you'd like to use natural sugar instead, it will work just fine. A little bit of polenta gives it a really nice corn flavour on top of the cornmeal. The almond meal lowers the carb count, too! Enjoy! Cover with foil for the last 7 minutes of cooking time to avoid over-browning the top!
