Flax & pumpkin seed cornbread

(from Cheri7787’s recipe box)

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup flaxseed
  • 1 3/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon powdered gluten-free egg replacer (such as Ener-G)
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 cup unsweetened soy milk
  • 1/4 cup high oleic safflower oil or canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup (use more for a sweeter flavor)
  • 1/3 cup roasted pumpkin seeds

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray an 8-inch loaf pan with olive or canola oil spray. 

  2. In a mini-food processor or coffee grinder, process flaxseed until finely ground, 10 to 20 seconds.

  3. In a large bowl, combine ground flaxseed, flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, combine egg replacer with warm water, stirring with a whisk. Stir in soy milk, oil and maple syrup. Make a well in dry ingredients and add liquid ingredients. Stir until just combined. Stir in pumpkin seeds. 

  4. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a rack for 5 minutes, then turn it out of the pan and continue cooling on the rack.
