Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the plant-based milk and vinegar. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk thoroughly.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the corn.
  5. Pour the batter into the baking pan and bake for approximately 25 minutes or until golden.
  6. Once baked, cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. For optimal flavor, let it sit overnight.
