I love vegan cornbread, it’s great with chilli, and also a fab snack. A bit crumbly, but moist our Vegan Cornbread has a bit of Vegan Cheese added for a bit of extra taste. This is a simple, easy and delicious recipe – if you’ve not tried cornbread before then you’re in for a treat.
Cornbread is fabulous with Chilli. Chilli is one of those wonderfully warming, comforting meals that’s perfect in winter and autumn- do take a look at our Chilli recipe here.
