5 from 1 rating
Hannah Kling
The Best Vegan Cornbread is made with simple ingredients like cornmeal, gluten-free flour, vegan butter and coconut milk. It’s sweetened with a little vegan cane sugar and tastes amazing with vegan butter and a warm cozy bowl of chili.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Servings 12 servings

Ingredients  

  • 1/4 cup vegan butter (melted)
  • 1 1/4 cup coconut milk + 1 tbsp AVC
  • 2 flax eggs (see notes above)
  • 1/3 cup cane sugar
  • 1 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup gluten-free 1:1 flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • To start, prepare the flax eggs by combining 2 Tbsp of ground flaxseeds with 5 Tbsp warm water. Stir until combined and place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to thicken. Next, prepare the buttermilk by combining coconut milk with apple cider vinegar, mix well and let sit on the counter for 5 minutes to curdle.
  • In the meantime, preheat the oven to 400F and prepare an 8×8 baking dish my lightly coating it with non-stick spray and then lining it with parchment paper. I like to do both methods to ensure nothing sticks.
  • When ready, add melted vegan butter, coconut milk buttermilk, flax eggs, and cane sugar to a large mixing bowl. Mix with a whisk until ingredients are well incorporated.
  • Next, add in cornmeal, gluten-free flour blend, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix with a rubber spatula until ingredients are combined.
  • Pour batter into prepared baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool slightly before removing from baking dish. Slice into pieces and enjoy!
  • Cornbread is best stored in an airtight container on the counter and enjoyed within 4 days.
