Classic Vegan Cornbread
This is a classic cornbread recipe for you that’s vegan-friendly, whole food plant based, gluten free, oil free, super tasty, and is made with just nine ingredients. You can also make it with just one bowl (though I use two), and it’ll be ready to eat in under 30 minutes. Goes great with my Anaheim Chili or by itself with jam.
