Fabulous, Melt in Your Mouth, Gluten Free Cornbread

Thanks to gluten free flour mixes like Pamela's Gluten Free Artisan Flour Blend, the guess work is removed as to what flours to use, how much xyanthan gum, starch...you're ready to go to make delicious baked goods. I found that my Corn bread recipe tasted better made with this flour blend than unbleached wheat flour. The Cornbread can be made either way, using Pamela's GF, or regular flour, the choice is yours. What ever you choose, the result is a tender, moist, irresistible Cornbread that you will want to serve with all your soups and stews!
