Gluten-Free Sweet Jalapeño Cornbread made with coconut flour and fresh jalapeno is a sweet bread with a hint of spice that everyone will enjoy.

I love coming with new recipes and things for my friends and family to enjoy. Even more when they have diet restrictions, as it allows me to play a little bit, taking recipes that I love and converting them into something they can eat.

Normally, we don’t eat gluten-free but recently while making some meals for a friend of two of my dear friends, I have had to bake this way. It is fun and I love it. This recipe is one of my favorites and a keeper.
I used coconut flour adding a touch of sweetness, I balanced this out with the spiciness of the jalapeno.

These flavors played well together and took an average cornbread and elevated it, not only will gluten-free eaters love it but everyone will enjoy this recipe.
Enjoy! XOXO San

the family is not BIG spice fans so I’d cut the amount of jalapeno’s down a bit –but this would make a great side dish for CHILI NIGHT!
Just take out the seeds and this will reduce the heat a ton. xo San

I’m not a cornbread fan but I’ve never had it with jalapeno, so maybe I would like it that way!
