I have made different versions of cornbread, but I have to say that this is the best cornbread I have ever eaten. My husband even ate some, and he does not like cornbread. This will be my main go to for cornbread from now on.

@CaminoTurtle 2 жыл бұрын

When making cornbread, I like to soak the cornmeal in the milk for 15 minutes and then add it to the flour with the other liquids. This helps the cornmeal to soak in the moisture. This helps prevent the cornbread from getting too dry. Thanks for sharing a great vegan alternative to my old cornbread recipe.

@RainbowPlantLife 2 жыл бұрын

Yes that’s a great idea! I saw that technique come up in my research but didn’t notice much difference between that and letting the cornbread batter rest and hydrate before baking. But now I want to try it again because I am a bit obsessed with cornbread lol.

Nisha: this Southern Jewish girl learned from the Texas WASP part of the family that the right way to make cornbread (before I was ever vegan - at 44...) was to put the skillet in the oven for 5 - 10 to get it scalding, remove and add the fat needed for the recipe (then: butter, now, vegan butter - adjust salt if salted), melt and swirl to coat, add to batter and combine, then add batter to skillet/oven to bake - makes an even crustier crust. Points for the buttermilk

@RainbowPlantLife 2 жыл бұрын

So I did the first few things…but then you pour the hot melted butter from the skillet into the batter, then pour the batter into the pan?? I am definitely intrigued!! I did a lot of research on southern cornbread but that particular technique of pouring the hot butter back into the batter didn’t come up!

For chili corn bread, I add a can of corn or a cob of corn that's been fire-roasted as well as some chopped jalapeños. Adds texture and flavour. Also, consider using the aqua faba from the white beans (whipped) to increase the fluffiness of the corn bread.

Love it! thank you for updating a childhood favorite, haven't had this in years. Thank you also for the tips, and that it was so simple and quick to make. I used stone-ground Blue Corn meal - it is said to have "about 20% more protein than yellow corn, a lower glycemic index", and "easier to digest than its yellow counterpart, as it has less indigestible starch". Also I used date sugar for the sweetener - it actually has 1 gram of fiber per 5 g of carbs, and also has a lower glycemic index than most other sugars. But it is expensive, whereas the original recipe here is both a treat and inexpensive.

I always ❤️ a good day of cooking with Nisha. I always know it’s going to be killer . This recipe is so good I made it twice in two days per someone else’s request along with her amazing chili! For those inquisitive minds wondering, yes, you can also turn these into muffins if you don’t feel like cleaning your cast iron skillet. I added some frozen roasted corn, left them in for about 15 minutes (ovens vary) and once they came out I topped each one with some vegan butter and they stayed nice and moist. Thanks Nisha!!! 💜 I think I have just enough flour to turn out another one of your banana breads for the 50th time this year. 😉

Hi Nisha, I made your recipe again yesterday. This time after I put the mixture all together, I let it sit for over 30 minutes. Then I put it in the oven.
