What goes best with chili?! Cornbread!
Vegan Jalapeño Cornbread that is, and it just so happens to be gluten free too because we don’t need the inflammation, you know? Inflammatory ingredients like gluten are detrimental to our hormone health as well. Plus, it tastes amazing without it!
I’ve been testing out this recipe for a while and it’s finally perfect! Made with oat flour, cornmeal, organic sweet corn and fresh jalapeño, it’s the ultimate vegan comfort food. It’s lightly sweetened with coconut sugar too, and no flax eggs! I find flax can make bread gummy and I’m just not about that, especially for cornbread.
This would be amazing to serve on gameday too!!
Spread some earth balance butter on top and pair it with my Healthy Pumpkin Chili, my Vegan White Bean Cheezy Chili or my Spicy Veggie Bean Chili. Mmmmm! So many options!
The ingredients are minimal (only 8 or 9 depending if you use jalapeño or not) to keep it as simple as can be. I also tried to choose ingredients that you probably already have on hand because when you want to make a recipe AND you have all the ingredients, there is no better feeling.
Mix all the dry ingredients together (cornmeal, oat flour, coconut sugar, etc), then the wet ingredients, then fold in the corn and jalapeño. Bake for 25 minutes, let cool and serve!
