GLUTEN FREE CORN BREAD 
This is a DELICIOUS recipe for a bread product that holds together well for a gluten free item.

My wheat sensitive daughter loves this corn bread, and the wheat lovers in the family have grown to love it too!

It's well worth it to use the best quality ingredients (stone ground corn meal, vs regular, makes a difference).

2 cups stone ground cornmeal (Hodgson Mill)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup gluten free baking mix (Bob's Red Mill)
1/4 cup sugar or real maple syrup
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup dairy sour cream
2 eggs
2 tbsp. oil
1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 cup frozen baby white corn (optional)
1/2 cup chopped fresh or frozen cranberries (optional)
1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1/2 cup finely chopped apples (optional)

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Toss dry ingredients in a bowl combine applesauce, buttermilk, corn in food processor combine with wet ingredients in a separate bowl.

Slowly add wet to dry. Mix just until combined. Adjust if too thick or thin (add milk or flour).

Pour into large rectangular (10x13-inch) greased pan.

Bake at 375°F for about 45 minutes until top is slightly golden and firm (test with knife in center).

Cool and cut in squares.

Enjoy and let me know your ideas for improvement.

Note: You can have fun with optional ingredients and add more or less of various ingredients to get it just right. I use ALL of the optionals for a really fine treat!
