16 Reviews of Easy Almost Fat Free Cornbread

This cornbread was very good. My husband said he liked it better than the cornbread at his favorite restaurant. My son didn't feel it was sweet enough - but I just handed him the honey to spread on it and then he was fine. Great recipe!

    I think this will become my standard cornbread recipe from now on. I like that it is low-fat and not too sweet. I am going to make it again, adding blueberries because it's blueberry season in Maine and I've got loads of the critters. I'll probably add a bit of Splenda for that, but ordinarily I like it just at the sweetness it is at. I also think I'll try using this as the topping for my Herbed Hamburger Pie With a Cornbread Crust (Herbed Hamburger Pie With a Cornbread Crust).

    Good for lowfat. I put a couple of teaspoons of sugar in to get my husband to eat it, and used half wheat flour. It was good with soup. I'm going to try microwaving a piece of the leftover quickly, and putting a piece of ham in it for lunch today. Good, fast recipe.

    We found this to be very heavy. Leftovers were very dry & hard, despite being properly stored. The addition of honey or honey butter would be great when serving... but then that would defeat the purpose of me making a low-points (WW) cornbread. I think we just prefer the lighter, sweeter versions of cornbread. Thanks anyway!

    Good for being low fat. Very dense, probably because I used whole wheat flour in place of the regular flour. Overall it was nice knowing that it's healthier then prepackaged corn bread. I also added splenda to sweeten it up.

    Very easy and tasty. I served it with hamburger soup, and had the leftovers next day as a snack with reduced fat peanut butter.

    I loved this. I think I needed to mix mine a little longer though, I had white spots in my muffins. They were still very good though. I will make this again.

    As fat free breads go this was a pretty good one though a bit more dry than I like -typical of fat free. I meant to add a tablespoon of Splenda but forgot, will do so next time. I did add a 1/4 cup of frozen corn thawed out and 3 scallions finely sliced. Also made muffins as I find that helps with the portion control. Betting that added a bit to the moistness. I'm betting that replacing 1/2 cup of the milk with some no fat yogurt might make this a good deal more tender. Thanks ladypit.

    Delicious! Used blue cornmeal and whole wheat pastry flour. Made this on a Sunday for dinner on Monday and it turned out great. Not too dry as some cornbreads can get. I did pour some honey on top- I just couldn't resist. Thanks for posting another great one, Ladypit!
