Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups cornmeal*
- ½ cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- ⅓ cup avocado oil
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 tsp cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a 8” x 8” baking pan with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, stir together the cornmeal, flour, baking soda and sea salt until the dry ingredients are combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, eggs, and avocado oil. Pour the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix well until a thick batter forms.

- Allow the bread to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
*Use medium-grind cornmeal or fine grind cornmeal, but don’t use a coarse grind as it is too gritty.
