Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cups yellow cornmeal (finely ground is best)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons aluminum free baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk, except for coconut milk)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup organic unsweetened apple sauce

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Make sure the oven is fully preheated before putting the cornbread in the oven or it won’t bake evenly.
  • Rub a layer of vegan butter over the sides and bottom of a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or a 9-inch baking pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour, ¾ cup cornmeal, ¼ cup sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, and ½ tsp salt until completely combined.
  • Add the 1 cup almond milk, ¼ cup vegetable oil, 2 tbsp maple syrup, and ¼ cup apple sauce and stir until completely combined.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and spread evenly throughout the pan.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and the sides are separating from the pan. Check for doneness by inserting a wooden toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, it’s done.
  • Serve warm with vegan butter.
