Golden Quickbread (Base Recipe)

Freshly ground kamut has a beautiful soft, buttery flavour, and when milled just a notch less than fine, produces a satisfying texture that will remind you of cornbread. This base recipe can go sweet or savoury, from jalapeño cheddar cornbread to a lovely base for a wholesome shortcake dessert.

1 bag GRAINSTORM Golden Quickbread Mix
or mill your own

Wet mix

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, melted
