Coconut and cornbread meet for a tasty and unexpected combination in this recipe for Crock-Pot Coconut Cornbread! It’s delicious!
Slow Cooker Coconut Cornbread
My sister had gone to a party where the hosts had made cornbread with coconut added to it and she raved about it the next day with me on the phone.
So the next time I went to make cornbread for my family I decided to tweak my classic Crock-Pot Cornbread recipe and add some coconut to it to see how it turned out.
And the results…my family loved it!
The coconut really added something different flavor-wise. Some what tropical but yet nutty.
Served warm right out of the slow cooker with some butter and a little drizzle of honey. Oh my!
Give this recipe a try I think you are going to really like it!

Common Questions:
Is The Coconut In This Corn Bread Recipe Sweetened Or Unsweetened?
I used unsweetened shredded coconut in this recipe, however you can use the sweetened variety and the finished cornbread will be a little bit more sweeter.
How Long Can I Keep The Finished Cornbread After It Has Been Baked In The Slow Cooker?
Once cooked, you can store the finished cornbread by wrapping it or covering it with plastic wrap (I like Glad Press’n Seal Plastic Food Wrap) and store it on the counter-top for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Can I Use White Corn Meal Instead Of Yellow Corn Meal In This Recipe?
Sure! White corn meal can easily be substituted for any recipe using yellow corn meal, including this coconut corn bread. The only difference will be the color of your finished cornbread.

Because this is a Crock-Pot website, I don't normally give oven or stove-top directions for my recipes. But because this is such a classic cornbread recipe you may just want to go ahead and save it to bake in the oven even if you don't have a slow cooker.
Oven Baking Directions:
Preheat your oven to 425° F (218° C) and cook in a 9 by 13 inch baking dish for about 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
You can also cook this in two 8 inch square baking pans or two cast iron skillets. The cornbread will cook a little faster in smaller pans so check your cornbread at about 20 minutes and continue cooking only if it is not done yet.
