- Hi friends, it's Sam, and today
we are gonna make the best ever, easiest,
amazing, delicious cornbread.
All vegan, all delicious, all the time.
Just the way we like it.
Now not only is this one of my most favorite recipes
but it was actually my most popular recipe
on my blog from the whole year of 2017.
Now I post a lot of recipes,
so that is pretty impressive stuff,
so you know it's gonna be good.
Now if you're excited to see cornbread,
hit that like button and for a new fuss-free
vegan video every single Wednesday,
don't forget to subscribe
and hit that bell notification ball.
Ball?
It's not a ball, it's a bell.
Now let's get to cooking cornbread, woo!
Alright, as promised, this recipe is super easy,
you just need one big bowl and all the ingredients
and you mix them all together.
And then bake, you have to bake it,
otherwise it's just gonna be like, dough, batter,
gross batter, no good.
So just grab yourself a big old shiny bowl.
Of course your bowl does not have to be shiny
but mine is.
Shiny.
Cornmeal, you wanna make sure that you use cornmeal
and not corn flour, 'cause that is a different thing.
Correct measuring please.
Cornmeal.
All purpose flour.
Sugar.
Whatever kinda non dairy milk you like.
I'm using soy today, that's generally my go-to
but almond, rice, cashew, any of those will work.
Just, you know, don't get like, vanilla
or something that's gonna have gross flavor.
Unsweetened or just plain will be great.
You need to melt some vegan butter,
I forgot about that.
One tablespoon of baking powder, perfect.
And salt.
And five tablespoons of melted vegan butter.
Ah!
And now just gently mix this all together.
You wanna mix it so it just comes toegther,
don't over mix it, I think that's a mistake
that a lot of people make when they're new to baking is
they feel the need to make it all very smooth and perfect.
Because if you over mix it, you can kill all of the rising
action, and then it kinda becomes dense and gross
and no one will like it, you know?
Lumps are totally cool, they'll sort themselves out.
So now, optionally, you can add some corn kernels
if you like, for a little extra texture.
I love it, some people don't like that extra texture
so it's up to you.
But I'm going to because I like it.
You can use fresh or frozen corn.
Perfect.
And now just give it one or two more stirs,
just to incorporate the corn kernels.
But, you know, like I said, don't over mix it.
Grease an 8x8 pan.
Ah!
And pour all of this goodness into my dish here.
And just use your spatula to lightly spread it
to make sure it's in all of those corners
and it's nice and even.
Beautiful, love it.
Now I'm just gonna pop it in the oven for 20-25 minutes
until a toothpick inserted in the center
comes out clean.
As I've been posting these recipes,
a few people have been asking where I've gotten
certain kitchen tools from, things like these
handy dandy measuring glasses.
So I made a little collection of all of my favorite
kitchen tools, as well as some books
and T-shirts and other fun things
and so you can check that out if you like
at kit.com/samsfaves.
Okay, see you in a minute when things are baked.
Yay!
Cornbread, delicious.
So I let it cool for like, 10-15 minutes
before you dig into it, I know it's hard to resist
because it smells oh so good,
but you wanna do that 'cause then it'll be good.
Just let it rest for a minute.
But now, I can taste my cornbread.
Gonna cut it up into pieces.
Poppin' these into this cute little bowl here.
How beautiful is that?
So beautiful.
Oh, it smells good, cornbread, man.
Mm, crumbs.
Okay my favorite part of these videos,
let's give the cornbread a taste test.
It smells amazing, it's still warm.
I'm gonna add an extra smear of butter
'cause I'm that kinda gal, what can I say?
No!
Butter down.
I just cleaned those counters so it is fine.
All the sides, yes.
Mm!
Mm.
Mm, so good.
Ahh.
Delish.
Ah, so good, it really is like the easiest
and most delicious cornbread ever.
Those kernels throughout give these little pops
of extra added sweetness, oh wee!
This is amazing, I love eating it
just as a snack, but it's amazing to serve
alongside a bowl of chili, which I have a video for.
I'll put a link right there
and down in the description as well,
for the best ever vegan chili
to go with the best ever vegan cornbread,
you know what I'm saying?
Sounds like a good meal to me.
Little more butter.
Judge away.
Yes.
It's crumbly but moist at the same time.
So good!
Ah, I can't stop eating it.
(hums)
And that's it for today's video.
Don't forget to like and subscribe before you go
and I'll see you next Wednesday for another
fuss-free vegan video.
Bon Appetegan!
Yum yum yum.
