One of the Best Low Sodium Pantry Recipes
This sweet salt free cornbread recipe is a fantastic pantry-staple meal! It uses almost all ingredients you would have in your dry pantry or cupboards – most of which you probably have on hand. Keeping a low so pantry makes it easy to come up with delicious and healthy meals using a few staples you can rotate.
I made a list of my Favorite Low Sodium Pantry Staples that I always keep stocked. By stocking up on healthy whole ingredients you can cook delicious salt-free & low so recipes without a trip to the store!
What Do I Need to Make This No Salt Added Cornbread?
I stock up on produce with Misfits Market – they have a fantastic selection of in-season fruits & veggies, low so pantry items, and great food finds for a fraction of grocery store prices! You can get $10 off your first $30 box by clicking here!
- All Purpose Flour: I normally use organic all purpose flour for all my recipes, I love the consistency and texture of the crumb this flour produces. If you want to keep it a little wholesome, you can use half whole wheat flour as well.
- Corn Meal: I like this medium corn meal, I always keep some in my pantry. It’s great for adding texture to pizza crusts (also the secret for keeping them from sticking on a pizza peel!) and breads, and also to make homemade corn bread.
- Granulated Sugar: I like this organic sugar for my recipes, since I don’t use sugar too often, I always get organic sugar for cooking and baking.
- Sodium Free Baking Powder: Regular baking powder is high in sodium – check the labels! We love this low sodium version, for a healthier swap. And it still makes the fluffiest baked goods!

- Vegetable Oil
- Eggs
How Do You Make Low Sodium Cornbread?
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9×9 inch baking dish, and set aside.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: in a large bowl, add the vegetable oil, milk, corn, and egg. Mix well with a wooden spoon to combine.
- Combine the Dry Ingredients: in a medium bowl, add the cornmeal, flour, sugar, and sodium free baking powder. With a clean spoon, mix well to combine.
- Make the Batter: Take the bowl with your dry ingredients and mix them into the wet. Fold well to make a thick batter. Pour batter into the baking dish.
- Bake: Place baking dish in the oven, and bake cornbread for 20-25 minutes until lightly browned on top. Test doneness with a toothpick: place toothpick in the center of the cornbread, when the cornbread is fully cooked the toothpick should come out clean.
