  • 1/4 cup white rice flour
  • 1/4 cup sweet white sorghum flour
  • 1/4 cup potato starch flour
  • 2 teaspoons gluten free baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 1/2 teaspoon guar gum

  • 2

  • 3
    In medium bowl, beat milk, vinegar, sugar and eggs with electric mixer on medium speed until frothy. Gradually add ghee, beating constantly until thoroughly mixed. Add cornmeal mixture; beat on low speed about 1 minute or until well blended. Pour into baking dish.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If you are avoiding milk, unsweetened almond milk works great in this recipe. It is available in most grocery stores.
  • tip 2
    Vinegar is added to balance the pH and to boost the leavening.
  • tip 3
    Ghee is clarified butter; it adds a buttery taste. Ghee is measured when melted. Just microwave it on High a minute or two to melt it. If you’d prefer, substitute sunflower or corn oil for the ghee in this recipe.
