Notes

⏰Make Ahead Instructions

Holidays are a busy time, and this recipe is easy to make ahead of time. Here's how:

Bake & Reheat Method

    • You can bake the cornbread completely ahead of time. Once cooled, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
    • Store at room temperature for 1-2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
    • To reheat, warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.

Prepare Batter in Advance

  • Mix the dry ingredients (cornmeal, flour, salt, sugar, baking powder) and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • Combine the wet ingredients (soy milk, vinegar, oil) separately and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
  • When ready to bake, bring the wet ingredients to room temperature, combine with the dry ingredients, and bake as directed.
