This morning I was so in the mood for a cake like bakery kind of breakfast so I decided to make the Corn Bread from the book (had all the ingredients and it was quick and easy), instead of using the sorgum or maple syrup I used unsulphured molasses and well...I do not know how I have not devoured the entire tray by now but it is yum, yum, yummmyy!!!!! just thought I would share! love it more than basic regular cornbread and the molasses gave it a smooth sweetness........even though it came out dark brown in color and does not look like corn bread, but it is ..as Alicia put it "crazy delicious"


PS- I know technically the maple syrup or sorgum is the healthier option over the molasses, but I guess that was the point is I wanted to make it "naughty" without sabotaging all my hard vegan work! lol

I just made the cornbread and mine is a bit gooey - not sure if I did something wrong. The taste is "crazy good" - please let me know if your batter was as watery as mine.

Gooey sounds ideal by me!

'Crazy good' is the perfect description. I've made these a few times and wind up giving them away to my friends and family to try because they are so good.

Did you use baking powder or baking soda? I just made a batch and I used baking soda per the recipe....however, after I had already put them in the oven I read the notes and it references baking powder? I hope theyre going to be okaay b/c I need to bring them to my son's school tomorrow!


Thanks!

Bianca! Just so you know I used the baking soda last night and brought them as cornbread muffins to my son's Thanksgiving celebration today and they were a hit with both the adults and the four year olds! So I guess even if she meant for it to be baking powder, it still works very well with baking soda. I also used maple syrup! DELICIOUS!

I was also confused whether to use baking powder or baking soda, I think I did baking powder..so yummy. Think I will try baking soda this time

I made mine with the baking soda, but that wasn't my problem. I never heard of sorghum before reading this book, so i went to my local market and found Bob's Red Mill Sorghum FLOUR.... so i assumed that was the right stuff to get... BIG TIME WRONG! the corn bread turned out like a dry sand castle! i'm going to try finding the syrupy version of the sorghum and try again! i want to do a test run before thanksgiving!!
