Sweet and savory cornbread stuffing

This triple corn cornbread uses cornmeal, corn flour and whole corn to give you great textures. You can usually find yellow corn flour (a finer milled version of cornmeal called “masa”) in the Mexican food section of the grocery store. Otherwise, all-purpose flour works just as well.

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Serves 3-4 as a side.

Directions

To make the cornbread, combine the cornmeal and 10 tablespoons of soymilk then microwave for two minutes and allow to rest for 15 minutes.

In a separate bowl, combine all the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Add the wet ingredients and the soaked cornmeal then mix just until combined. Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined 8″ square baking pan and bake at 350° F for 35 minutes or until golden brown.

Allow the cornbread to cool completely to firm up.

Next, add the margarine, onions, garlic and celery to a sautée pan and cook on medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Add the dried spices, salt and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Add the stock then crumble the cornbread in large pieces over the vegetables. Cook for another 1-2 minutes then turn off the heat. Add the chopped parsley and transfer to a serving dish.
