Cornmeal Cornbread

One of my nieces is gluten intolerant.  It's really no fun to see food and not be able to eat it. When she comes to visit, I try to make all foods served be gluten free. I set out on a quest to find a cornbread recipe that didn't contain white flour.  This recipe has been enjoyed by all.  Because we have a large family, I double the recipe and use a large cast iron skillet to bake it in.  Actually, I often double if even if we don't have a lot of eaters, so we can enjoy leftovers! If doubling, give double the time to bake as well.
