The use of both almond or coconut flour in place of cornmeal works really well and will fool your taste buds into thinking you’re having the real thing.

Part of the reason they work so well is that my recipes treat this alternative flours as if it was cornmeal.

One of the ways I mimic the flavor of cornbread is to bake all my Keto Cornbread Recipes in a cast-iron skillet. This is because a cast iron skillet retains heat very well and creates the perfect crust.

This list includes some recipes that combine a keto chili with a low carb cornbread topping. Like our keto tamale pie that features all the Southwestern flavors of a traditional tamale pie minus the high carbs. In this recipe, we combine a chunky keto chili with a low carb cornbread topping for a complete Tex Mex meal.

I also have a keto chicken chili cornbread casserole that combines a quick keto chicken chili with a layer of low carb cornbread. It’s one complete easy skillet meal. In this case, the cornbread topping uses coconut flour for a nut-free option.

What’s more this list of keto cornbread recipes also includes our keto-friendly chili recipes that pair perfectly with our keto carb cornbreads.

After several requests for a coconut flour cornbread option, I also created keto cornbread recipes that are made with coconut flour. This meant that I was now able to create recipes that give people with nut allergies a delicious alternative.

Not only are they a nut-free recipe but the use of coconut flour makes these keto cornbread recipes extra low in carbs. Plus the use of coconut flour makes it more economical than the recipes that use nut flours.

Best Keto Cornbread Extract

Using a keto cornbread extract simply amplifies the flavor of “corn” in these cornbread recipes. It’s a way to further fool your tastebuds. 

The use of a corn extract is really effective in getting the flavor of cornbread without the use of any corn.

OOOflavors cornbread flavored concentrate has managed to create a cornbread extract that has zero calories, zero sugar, and zero carbs.

Since it’s a highly concentrated extract a tiny amount is all you need to get the flavor of corn.

I recommend using 3-4 drops in this recipe and see if it elevates the flavor further.

Some tips to consider when making any of our keto cornbread recipes are the quality of ingredients you use. From the cooking utensils to the spices you use it makes a difference in the final product.

Favorite Tex Mex Spices

Spices play a major role in the final outcome of a recipe. Which is why I encourage you to ensure that your spices are still fresh. When spices go past their expiration point they lose their potency.

The following are some of my favorite go-to spices for when I combine keto chili with cornbread.

• Chili powder
• Ancho chili powder
• Cumin powder

Favorite Baking Tools

Probably one of my favorite items to use when cooking keto cornbread recipes is a cast-iron skillet. It truly makes a big difference when baking items that are low in carbs. In my experience using a cast-iron skillet helps in mimicking the texture of a traditional recipe.

You’ll find that I refer to my cast-iron skillet often because I love how well a low carb cornbread bakes in it. The high heat that the skillet maintains allows for your keto cornbread to develop a crust that rivals traditional cornbread. I assure you that it’s an investment you will enjoy for years.
