Cornbread recipe for Rachel (and everyone else too!)

I can't remember where I got this but I veganized it and it still tastes great.

1 1/2 c. flour

2/3 c. sugar. I used vegan cane sugar.

1/2 c. yellow corn meal

1 T. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1 1/4c. milk. I use unsweetened almond milk.

2 eggs. I personally use Ener-G egg replacer or sometimes natural applesauce, but you can pick your own substitute.

1/3 c. vegetable oil

3 T. earth balance buttery spread

Mix flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder and salt and set aside. In a separate bowl mix milk, egg substitute, oil, and earth balance buttery spread. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until well combined.

Bake at 350 for about 35 minutes.

Enjoy!

Alicia also has a recipe for Cornbread in The Kind Diet, page 163. It's very sweet (and very good).

1 cup sorghum or maple syrup

1 1/2 cups soy milk (or soy/rice blend)

1/4 cup safflower oil

1 1/2 cups cornmeal

1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. fine sea salt

Preheat oven to 400*F. Oil a 9" x 9" (or similar size) baking dish or 12-cup muffin tin. Combine first  three ingredients in medium bowl; mix well. In another bowl stir remaining ingredients. Add dry mixture to wet mixture and mix just until well combined (if overmixed she says muffins can become heavy and tough). Pour batter into prepared baking dish and bake 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cornbread or muffin comes out clean.

I know that meat substitutes can be made with soy products...there is absolutely no reason to eat meat...

I am going to make this on Thursday! Can't wait!!! 

I am so making this!  Im serving a vegan Thanksgiving this year for my family (my son, 17 and I are vegan - hubby and daughter 5, are veg).  Im making vegan individual pot pies, but my son, who eats like you would not believe, wants a stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, etc also.  This looks perfect!

@Rachel Lubbon- There is a great Cornbread recipe in The Joy of Vegan Baking as well! :) I'm gonna give it a try in this stuffing this year! It'll be my first time to make stuffing from scratch- we'll see what happens....

Made this for Thanksgiving and it was so delicious! I am thankful for this new recipe!

O, my word, i served that recipe at thanks giving, and i had so many comploments on it,( everyone was saying, what recipe did u use, how did you make it. I said i found it in Alicia silverstones cook book.

next year, i will for sure use that one again
