MARCH RECIPE CHALLENGE!

This month’s recipe challenge ingredient was CORN!

*CUE APPLAUSE*

Naturally, that made me want cornbread. I can hear what you’re saying. Cornbread has cornmeal in it but not actual corn so how can that qualify?

WELL IT QUALIFIES WHEN YOU PUT CORN IN THE CORNBREAD, SMARTYFACE.

So that is what I did.

Here is the recipe I used! Thanks, Vegan Zombie!

(It’s a video this time! Fancy.)

Seriously though, this guy has some AWESOME recipes. I’ve made a few of his other things, and in addition to laughing (or groaning) at his jokes the food is delicious! Go check him out! No, he didn’t ask me to say that. I don’t even know him. What?

So, here’s my “mise en place” shot. Everything pictured was actually used for the recipe this time. Go me!

I only sliced a red pepper because Trader Joe’s only sells green peppers in a three pack and I was too cheap to buy an extra pepper.

Also, I was too lazy to get a chipotle pepper and grind it. Surely that is delicious, however.

Obligatory cooking progress shots...

HERE IS PROOF THAT CORN WAS INCLUDED. 

It’s not in the recipe, but I added 1 cup of thawed sweet white corn to the batter. It bet it would be awesome if you roasted or sautéed it first.

This was harder to photograph than you'd think.

Should you try this, make sure to let the veggies cool off completely before scooping them onto the batter with your bare hands.

Ow.

Finished product!

This gets 4 forks up from me. Despite the fact I left out some things, it turned out amazingly delicious and very moist and cake-like. Plus, adding the sweet white corn gives it a nice little crunch of sweetness each time I find a kernel. Yum yum! Totally making it again! 

SPOILER ALERT: Here is a piece of the bread on top of some awesome chili that I made. That recipe is coming SOON!

It didn't sink!

Here are the other recipes for the challenge!
