This isn't my first venture into cornbread. I've previously made my Cheesy Protein Cornbread using both whey and casein protein, as well as cottage cheese, for a high protein, low fat, and lower carb cornbread. But today, I'm making a vegan cornbread with more whole foods ingredients. This version is lower in protein, but higher in healthy fats and fiber. But both are gluten and sugar free; you can't go wrong with either one! This is a great side to some Creamy Vegan White Bean Chili for a vegetarian meal with a decent source of plant based protein
