  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup canned creamed corn

  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 6 oz. crumbled goat cheese

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and brown sugar.
  • In another large bowl, whisk together creamed corn, pumpkin, honey, egg, butter, and milk.

  • Fold in goat cheese crumbles. 
  • Pour batter into a greased 8-inch square pan.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until edges are golden, and a toothpick inserted near center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Remove to a wire rack to cool.
  • Cut and serve.

Notes

I like to chill this cornbread for about 30 minutes after it's cooled. It gets nice, clean cuts. Without chilling, the cornbread is so moist that the pieces cut pretty unclean. Chilling just firms it up and sets it - no need to continue storing in refrigerator once it's firmed up!
