Ingredients

  • 17 oz Jiffy corn muffin mix (2 boxes)
  • cup plant-based milk
  • 2 flax eggs
  • cup vegetable oil substitute melted vegan butter or applesauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C. Spray an 8x8" pan with vegetable spray. 
  • Combine the corn muffin mix, plant-based milk, flax egg, and vegetable oil in a bowl. Stir to combine.
    A hand holds a bowl of soy milk, pouring it into a bowl with cornbread ingredients.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the cornbread is golden on top.
    Cornbread batter is being poured into a square pan.
  • Serve warm. Place in a sealed container and refrigerate any unused portions. It should last 4 - 5 days in a the fridge; up to a month in the freezer.

Notes

I specify to use plain plant-based milk, but there have been times when all I had was vanilla-flavored milk and this recipe still came out tasting fine.
If you're using a muffin pan, reduce cooking time to approximately 18 minutes.

Egg Substitutes

  • Chia egg
  • Vegan plain yogurt — 1/4 cup of yogurt can substitute for one egg.
  • Tofu — You can whip tofu in a blender or food processor and use it as an egg substitute. The same ratio works here, roughy 1/4 cup of whipped tofu can be used for one egg.
  • Aquafaba — Use 3 tablespoons of liquid from a can of chickpeas (referred to as aquafaba) as a substitute for one egg.
