- 1 ½ cups cornmeal 250g
- ½ cup all-purpose flour 60g
- 6 tablespoons sugar 75g
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon coarse salt
- 1 ¼ cups unsweetened, plain dairy free milk
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 large egg or 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
Mise en place. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper. Then, measure all of your ingredients before you begin.
Mix the dry ingredients. Add the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the wet ingredients. Create a small well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add the egg, milk and olive oil and stir until combined. Be careful not to over mix. The batter will not be completely smooth.
Bake the cornbread. Transfer the batter to your prepared baking dish and bake for 25 - 30 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean and the top is lightly golden.
Cool and serve. Allow the cornbread to cool for 5 - 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve warm with dairy free butter and honey if desired.
