About Pain au mais

Pain au Mais, or "Corn Bread" in French, is a traditional bread rooted in French cuisine, often crafted with a blend of cornmeal and wheat flour. Its slightly sweet, nutty flavor and tender crumb make it a delightful option for both snacking and pairing with meals. Incorporating cornmeal not only adds a distinct taste but also enriches the bread with dietary fiber and essential nutrients like magnesium and phosphorus. While it’s generally low in fat, Pain au Mais can vary in nutritional benefits depending on additional ingredients such as butter or sugar. Some recipes include seeds, enhancing its healthy fat and protein content. Although not gluten-free due to wheat flour, its unique texture and flavor profile make it a versatile choice for balanced diets. Perfect for enjoying plain or toasted, it offers a wholesome touch to the table, while its simple ingredients highlight the artisanal essence of French baking traditions.
