Vegan cornbread

I began my A&E firm today, and it's really going to be a tough three weeks. 8 hour shift every day, one weekend and one night, and revision on top. Goodbye sleep!

Leonardo Da Vinci once said 'simplicity is the ultimate sophistication'. Who needs to bake something elaborate for a delicious result? This very simple basic vegan cornbread is so easy to bake but is filling, healthy, and has a slight sweet taste that is just perfect. It literally take less than 10 minutes to prepare - which is of course perfect for tough days like the day I had today.

Makes 12-16 slices
Ingredients
2 cups soya milk
2 tsp apple cider vinegar
2 cups coarse cornflour/ polenta flour/ cornmeal
1 cup plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup oil
2 tbsp honey/ maple syrup/ agave
Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and line a 9x13 inch baking tin with grease proof paper. 
2. In a medium bowl whisk together the soya milk and vinegar and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, sift together the coarse corn flour, flour, baking powder and salt. Add the oil and honey to the soya milk mixture and whisk with a wire whisk or fork until it is foamy and bubbly.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix together until combine. Pour into the prepared baking tin and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
