Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 1/4 cup self-rising flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed mixed with 6 tablespoons water flax eggs
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil melted
  • 1 cup almond milk mixed with 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar vegan buttermilk
  • 2 teaspoons vegan butter plus more for greasing

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed with water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the self-rising flour, yellow cornmeal, and sugar.
  • Pour the almond milk mixture (vegan buttermilk) and vegetable oil into the dry ingredients. Add the melted coconut oil and the prepared flax eggs.
  • Stir the mixture until all ingredients are well combined and the batter is smooth.
  • Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with vegan butter. Pour the cornbread batter into the dish, spreading it evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Remove the cornbread from the oven and immediately slather 2 teaspoons of vegan butter over the top, allowing it to melt.
  • Let the cornbread cool slightly before slicing and serving.
