About Corn bread

Cornbread is a classic dish with Southern U.S. roots, though its origins trace back to Native American cuisine, where corn was a staple ingredient. Made primarily from cornmeal, flour, eggs, milk, and a leavening agent like baking powder, it has a slightly sweet, earthy flavor and a tender, crumbly texture. Cornbread can be baked, fried, or steamed, making it a versatile side item for meals like chili or barbecue. Nutritionally, it provides dietary fiber and essential nutrients like B vitamins, magnesium, and iron from the cornmeal. However, traditional recipes often include sugar and butter, which add extra calories and fat. To boost its health profile, whole-grain cornmeal and reduced-fat milk or yogurt can be used. While cornbread is a comforting and flavorful option, portions should be moderated to balance its carbohydrate content with other nutrients in your meal.
