Pumpkin Maple Cornbread Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan. Line with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Butter the parchment.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda.
• In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup melted butter, the egg, brown sugar, pumpkin purée, buttermilk and 1/2 cup maple syrup. Fold in the dry ingredients. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, and smooth out the top.
• Top evenly with the pumpkin seeds. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 25 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter and the remaining 2 tablespoons maple syrup.
• Transfer bread in the pan to a wire rack. While the bread is still warm, brush the entire surface with the butter-maple mixture. Remove the cornbread from the pan using the overhanging parchment, and cut cornbread into pieces. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, pumpkin, milk and butter. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish., Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve warm. If desired, serve with pumpkin butter.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, beat egg; add milk, syrup and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Pour into a greased 9-in. square baking pan. Bake at 400° for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes; cut into squares. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees, and place inside a 9-inch cast iron skillet or a 2-quart baking dish.
• Whisk together the pumpkin purée, milk, olive oil, honey and eggs.
• Place the cornmeal in a large bowl, and sift in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix together. Do not overwork.
• Remove the baking dish or pan from the oven, and add the butter. When it has melted completely, brush the sides of the pan with a pastry brush; tip the excess melted butter into the batter, and quickly mix it in. Scrape the batter into the hot pan, and return it to the oven. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until a tester comes out clean. Remove from the oven, and allow to cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before serving.
