Cornmeal Cookies are not something that immediately come to mind when I think of baking, but I am trying to be more adventurous in the kitchen. Turns out, they are pretty darn delicious. I participated in an Ambassador Program on behalf of Influence Central for P.A.N. Cornmeal. I received product samples as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation.

P.A.N. Cornmeal has existed for many years but is only recently making its way into kitchens in the USA. It’s the number one cornmeal in South America. Corn is native to the Americas, but due to its rich nutrients and versatility, cornmeal is a staple in countries all over the globe.

To get some recipe ideas and inspiration, I visited P.A.N. Cornmeal’s Tumblr. Naturally, the cornmeal cookies caught my eye. I modified the recipe a bit, and mine look different than theirs in the picture. My cookies seem a lot more cake-like, but they are yummy.

The result of this culinary exploration was light, fluffy, cookies that are not too sweet, but still flavorful. Mike and I both had a hard time describing what was happening with our taste buds, but we kept going back for more. He wanted to eat them with whipped cream. I enjoy cookies that are not overly sweet, so I loved them. The cake-like texture makes them extra interesting. I will make them again for sure, and cannot wait to experiment with more cornmeal recipes.

Have you ever had cornmeal cookies? Do you have a favorite cornmeal recipe?

    I’ve never heard of baking with cornmeal. They look really good, though. They look kind of light and airy. I’d give them a try.

    The only time I Have ever used cornmeal is to coat the bottom of my homemade pizzas when I cook them. I would totally try baking with it, though.

    This is an original way to bake cookies – I would have never thought to use cornmeal instead of flour. I have baked cornbread before with cornmeal and that is about it. I bet the cinnamon makes them taste really good.

    I love cornmeal cookies. I am like you and don’t love the super sweet and your husband is spot on their are so good with a little whipped cream. It makes them decadent. I always use self rising cornmeal in mine. I love the cake like texture. They are especially good in a muffin top pan and yummy with coffee 🙂
