My Favorite Chili and "Corn"bread

I throw chili together all the time and it's always different. This time I realized it was my favorite and wanted to make note of it here for you (really, for me.)

"CORN"BREAD

This is recipe comes from LowCarbMaven.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cups Part Skim Mozzarella Cheese, shredded (cheddar, Monterey Jack or pepper Jack)

• 2 ounces cream cheese (softened in microwave)

• 3 large eggs

• 1 tbsp baking powder

• 1/4 tsp Amoretti Sweet Corn Extract (Don't skimp on this. This brand made all the difference in the recipe for me. It's pricey, but worth it and lasts a really long time.)

• 2 cups almond flour

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Liberally butter or oil a 10-inch cast iron skillet.

• Place the cheeses, eggs, baking powder, extract and almond flour (in that order) in a VitaMix or food processor. Process until a thick batter forms.

• Spread batter in skillet and bake for 25-30 minutes until light golden, cautious to not overcook it.

ENJOY!
