Dairy-Free Portuguese Broa (Cornbread)

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups Cornmeal
• 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
• 1/4 cup Sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1 1/2 cups Plant-Based Milk (Soy, Almond, Oat)
• 1/4 cup Olive Oil

Instructions

1. 1Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a 9-inch round baking pan.
2. 2In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly whisk together the 1 1/2 cups of Cornmeal, 1 cup of All-Purpose Flour, 1/4 cup of Sugar, 2 teaspoons of Baking Powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of Salt until all dry ingredients are evenly combined.
3. 3In a separate bowl, combine the 1 1/2 cups of Plant-Based Milk and the 1/4 cup of Olive Oil, stirring them together gently.
4. 4Pour the combined wet ingredients from the separate bowl into the large bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spoon or spatula until the ingredients are just combined and no dry streaks of flour remain; be careful not to overmix the batter.
5. 5Carefully pour all of the batter into the prepared 9-inch round baking pan, spreading it evenly with your spatula.
6. 6Bake the cornbread in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes. The cornbread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and the top appears lightly golden brown.
7. 7Allow the cornbread to cool slightly in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This cooling time helps the cornbread set, making it easier to slice cleanly.
