ADDITIONAL
- 100 grams of guava paste cut into small cubes with a little cornmeal
Instructions
- Fatti a mano 180ºC, grease a 30 x 40 cm pan with a little oil and sprinkle some cornmeal.
- In a bowl add all the dry ingredients and mix well with a fork.
- Make a cavity in the center of the dry mixed and add the wet ingredients.
- Start by mixing the wet ingredients with a fork and then add the dry ingredients.
- When to stay too heavy to stir with a fork, put your hand in the dough To get the right consistency, the dough should not be dry and you should be able to make balls with the dough.
- If the dough is too sticky wash your hands and test again, if necessary add more corn flour.
- When the dough is ready add the little pieces of guava paste and stir quickly.
- Make 12 balls of approximately 1 heaped tablespoon of dough and place in the greased and floured pan leaving a space of at least 3 cm.
- Bake in a preheated oven 180ºC for approximately 25 minutes.
- Let them cool on a rack or plate lined with absorbent paper and then store them in a tightly sealed jar.
Notes
- You can exclude the guava paste from the recipe or replace it with small pieces of chestnuts, walnuts, raisins or even chocolate chips.
- If you don't want to use plant-based milk My suggestion is that you use 2 tablespoons of water with 2 tablespoons of oil, if you only use water the cornbread will be drier.
- You can use vegetable oil of your choice or even butter.
- You can change the sugar demerara for another of your preference or even sweetener, but with sweetener the texture is a little compromised.
