Ingredients
 
 

Cornbread

  • 1 ½ cups nondairy milk, unsweetened and unflavored
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 ½ cups yellow cornmeal, ground finely
  • 1 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tablespoons baking powder
  • cup organic sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 vegan egg replacer
  • cup neutral oil
  • 1 cup frozen corn

Whipped Maple Butter

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (216°C).
  • Add the apple cider vinegar to the nondairy milk to make vegan buttermilk. Mix together and set aside for 5 minutes to curdle.
  • In a large separate bowl add the cornmeal, all purpose flour, baking powder, organic sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well incorporated.
  • Then add in the vegan buttermilk, egg replacer, and oil. Whisk together until a batter is formed.
  • Add in the frozen corn and fold it in with a whisk.
  • Pour into an oiled 9x9 inch or 8x8 inch pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until it is golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl use a hand mixer to start to whip the butter on a low speed for 30 to 40 seconds. Then add the maple syrup and whip at a medium speed for another 30 to 40 seconds. You may need to use a spatula to clean and scrape the mixing whisks. Then mix again on a high speed for 40 to 60 seconds until the vegan butter is light and fluffy.
  • Once the cornbread is done allow it to cool for 10 to 20 minutes before cutting.
  • Serve with the maple butter and enjoy.

Notes

  • For the vegan egg replacer I like to use the one from Bob's Red Mill but you can use a flax egg, chia egg, or any other vegan egg replacer you like.
  • The finer cornmeal you can use the better will make your cornbread less gritty. I used the one from Indian Head.
  • Non-dairy milk used is Ripple but any one will work.
  • Caraway Pan
