Our Keto Jalapeno Cornbread has all the flavor and texture of regular cornbread, without the carbs. Use as a side dish for Keto Chili or just enjoy warm with butter.
We use blanched almond meal for this recipe to replicate the texture of the cornmeal used in regular cornbread, it can be swapped out for regular almond flour. The cornbread flavoring replicates that delicious corn flavor.

This recipe turned out delicious. This was better than the old fashioned jalapeño cheese cornbread we ate while growing up. It was very moist and had great flavor. So happy to finally have a great low-carb recipe that tastes great. My picky diabetic husband loved it too.
Only made 2 tweaks to this recipe: Northbay freeze-dried sweet corn. 4 tsp, ground in a food processor. Mt Olive diced jalapenos, drained. This has to be the best fake-bread bread I’ve done in 2 years. My wife and I own a bakery, I stopped baking when diagnosed type 2 and spent a year trying every low carb recipe I could. If these were made for a dinner party and not specified as low carb, no one would ever know! Amazing!! Thank you!
