I had a hankering for bread, but I wanted something different. I had been dreaming about fresh cornbread, maybe cheddar jalapeño? Ooey gooey chocolate chip? Or one of my personal favorites, traditional cornbread topped with a little pad of butter and a drizzle of honey? But alas, I was out of cornmeal. Now what?
(If you want to try a box mix to make cornbread, I really like this super affordable option.)
I searched the cabinets looking for bread inspiration. That’s when I came across a box of Cream Of Wheat. (Cream Of Wheat is an American brand of finely milled farina.) Perfect! I would make Cream Of Wheat bread instead!
Similar in texture to cornbread, but with a creamier and slightly sweeter flavor, it tastes like heaven when it is warmed and served with a pad of butter melted across the top and a drizzle of real maple syrup. I love to eat a slice of this bread for breakfast, but you can eat it anytime!
I decided to bake mine in a round springform cake pan and cut it into slices much like a cake, but this recipe would be equally fantastic as Cream Of Wheat muffins!
This recipe is pretty straight forward, so let’s dive right in!
