Stack of cornbread with butter on top

Vegan Buttermilk Cornbread

Growing up I ate a lot of chili and cornbread! It's still to this day the thing I look forward to most when fall comes around. I enjoy the coziness of the dish, it's filling, and keeps ya warm! I just posted a delicious Spicy Three Bean Butternut Squash Chili and it's amazing but chili without cornbread is not as satisfying. So here's the fluffiest, most delicious cornbread! It's best served buttered with a drizzle of maple syrup. Yum!

Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup Cornmeal
  • 1 cup All Purpose Flour
  • ¼ cup Brown Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 ¼ cup Unsweetened Soy Milk
  • 1 tablespoon White Vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Ground Flaxseed
  • 2 tablespoons Water
  • ½ cup Melted Vegan Butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425F
  • Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the unsweetened soy milk and the white vinegar. Set aside and it will slightly curdle. This is our "buttermilk" replacement.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the ground flaxseed and water. Set aside to thicken. This is acting as our egg replacement.
  • Melt the vegan butter on the stove top or in the microwave.
  • Add the melted butter and thickened flaxseed to the buttermilk and whisk together.
  • Pour the wet mixture in to the dry mixture and fold until just combined and no dry flour remains. Don't over mix.
  • Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment and spray or brush with a bit of oil.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Top cornbread with vegan butter and maple syrup if desired. Enjoy with a big bowl of Spicy Three Bean Butternut Squash Chili.

Notes
