Lately, I’ve been baking up another cornbread recipe that is VERY GOOD and not so heavy on the fats. I used it for my cornbread stuffing this past Thanksgiving. Now, I’m baking up a batch every time I pressure cook a pot of pinto beans.

- 1/2 cup natural applesauce
- 1 cup unsweetened nondairy milk
- 1 tablespoon white distilled vinegar

- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoons salt

- Lightly coat your iron skillet with one or tablespoons margarine. Pop it in the oven for 5 minutes to get it hot. Using potholders, remove the hot skillet from the oven.
- Pour the batter into the hot skillet, and smooth the top with a spatula to ensure an even thickness of batter. Return the hot skillet to the oven. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until lightly golden around the edges.
- Allow the bread to cool in the skillet for at least 15 minutes before attempting to remove. Continue cooling bread on a wire rack.
- You can eat it right then, or save it for another recipe. ;D
