Ingredients

  • 1 cup all purpose flour OR gluten-free flour blend see note
  • 3/4 cup yellow cornmeal not coarse ground
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1/2 cup honey or pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup canola oil, vegetable oil or melted coconut oil (refined)
  • 1/4 cup milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x9 square baking pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pie spice.
  • In a separate bowl whisk eggs, pumpkin puree, honey or syrup, oil, and milk until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for approximately 30 minutes (begin checking it at 25 minutes). A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. Serve warm with butter and honey.

Notes

When making this recipe gluten-free I used Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 Gluten Free Baking Flour.
You can also make these into muffins by dividing them between a 12-cup muffin tin and baking at 350° for about 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
