Nothing beats baking a loaf of homemade bread – and while I love baking yeast breads (such as this soft, fluffy gluten-free white bread, this soft brown rice bread, or this tender buckwheat bread), there are days where I prefer to make a loaf of quick bread instead.

Quick breads use baking powder for leavening instead of yeast (which means no rising time required and hence quicker prep time). This makes them great for throwing together when you’re in a hurry or simply hungry for something delicious and don’t want to wait long to eat.

Some of our favorite quick breads include this hugely popular honey oat quick bread, this low-carb almond bread, and this coconut flour bread.

Recently, I’ve also been testing a quick bread recipe made with corn flour, since I had a half a packet of corn flour in my pantry (left over from when I made the easiest corn flour pancakes ever!)

Corn flour is basically made from grinding whole corn kernels very thoroughly to get a very soft, fine pale yellow powder. It is naturally gluten-free, which means it’s safe for Celiacs and those with gluten intolerances to enjoy!

Corn flour is NOT the same as corn starch, which is made only from the starchy part of corn, and is processed into a fine white powder.

Corn flour is also NOT the same as corn meal, which is basically dried corn kernels ground into a yellow, coarse meal with a sand-like texture.

Honestly, this recipe is literally foolproof. All you need is just 8 simple ingredients and an hour to bake a loaf of this absolutely delicious corn flour bread.

Best of all, it’s totally gluten-free and dairy-free too (so even Celiacs or those with gluten and dairy intolerances can enjoy it!), but it’s so darn good no one would notice! Trust me when I say that!

Here’s a visual overview of the ingredients you’ll require to make this recipe. For the exact quantities, please refer to the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

Add the beaten eggs, almond milk, and vegetable oil, and whisk until you get a homogeneous pale yellow batter (the batter will be rather liquid and have a pourable consistency).

Allow loaf to cool for at least 10 minutes in the pan before removing it and allowing it to finish cooling on a wire rack.

No, I do NOT recommend that you substitute the corn flour with corn starch or corn meal as they are three completely different ingredients.

Corn Flour: Note that corn flour is NOT the same as corn starch or corn meal (which is also known as polenta), so do NOT substitute it with either of those.

Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour: I highly recommend using a good-quality gluten-free flour blend that is made up of lighter flours/starches (such as rice flour, corn starch, tapioca starch, or potato starch) to ensure a light and tender final texture. I do NOT recommend using gluten-free flour blends that include heavier flours and starches (such as garbanzo bean flour) as that will result in a denser final texture.

Homemade Gluten Free Bread Recipe

Sugar: I used white granulated sugar, but feel free to use light brown sugar or brown if you prefer. Just note that using light brown or brown sugar will cause the interior of the bread to be a darker color (instead of the pale yellow color that it has in the photos in this post). If you are diabetic, I highly recommend using Lakanto monkfruit sweetener (a 1:1 sugar alternative with zero glycemic index).

Baking Powder: Make sure to use gluten-free baking powder if you are Celiac or gluten-intolerant. Since we are not using yeast in this bread, baking powder is what will help this corn flour bread to rise and give it its fluffy texture.

Crusty

Eggs: If your eggs were originally in the refrigerator, you can bring them to room temperature by running the eggs under warm water to warm them up a little before breaking them. The eggs are necessary for binding and helping the bread to rise, and I haven’t tried this recipe without eggs. If you are allergic to eggs though, you could try using aquafaba as an egg-replacement. Please let me know how it goes it you make it without eggs.

Almond Milk: I used my 5-minute homemade almond milk, but you can also use other non-dairy milks such as cashew milk, rice milk, sunflower seed milk or soy milk if you prefer. Alternatively, if you are not lactose-intolerant, you can also use normal dairy milk in equal quantities.

Sunflower Oil: I used sunflower oil because I always have it on hand. However, you can also use other neutral vegetable oils. Alternatively, if you are not lactose-intolerant, you can also use melted butter instead.

Metal Loaf Pan: I highly recommend using a metal loaf pan because it allows the sides of the loaf to cook evenly and creates the golden brown crust on all sides. Using a glass pan or ceramic pan will probably not result in the evenly color all over.

Hey you! I’m Felicia, a Singaporean girl who moved to Buenos Aires for love. A couple of things about me: I love food, writing and food photography. I wrote a grain-free ecookbook that I know you’ll love and I also do freelance writing and photography if you want to work with me. Follow me on this blog as I navigate the world of cooking gluten-free, dairy-free and egg-free.Ah, fall. The squirrel-like part of my personality wants to pack away foods for winter. That's great when I'm canning tomatoes or pickling peppers or freezing vegetables, but it's not great when I overbuy and don't get around to using things as soon as I should.

Corn starts getting old faster than almost anything else. Picked fresh and cooked soon, it's amazingly good. After few days, it's just okay. Another day or two, and it's time to get creative.

Broa (portuguese Cornbread)

I cut the corn off the cob then milked the cobs to get all the juice, then started looking at my food processor...maybe it would take care of the texture problems that exist with corn that's a bit over the hill? Perfect! And of course, I decided to make bread.

While this bread has plenty of corn in it, this isn't your grandmother's cornbread. It's a lightly sweet yeasted bread with a subtle corn flavor that begs for butter. This bread is soft, moist, and sandwich-worthy. I love the smell of baking bread all by itself, but this one was particularly enticing, with the added scent of roasting corn as the bread started browning towards the end of baking time.

Note: When using the food processor, you need to be careful not to overprocess the dough. Process for a minute, then check the dough's consistency and temperature. If it feels warm to the touch, let it rest for a few minutes to cool, then process for another 30 seconds, and check again. It needs to be properly elastic, but it's possible to overknead with a food processor, so don't be tempted to keep going after it's done.
