This rich vegan cornbread recipe with Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat is packed with nutrients. A go-to with chili, stew, vegan casseroles, and more.


This rich vegan cornbread recipe with Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat (HTB) is beyond delicious. It’s one of the healthiest high-protein cornbread recipes you can make. That’s because HTB rocks all nine essential amino acids, vitamins, minerals, polyphenols, and immense prebiotics for your gut.

It’s also fiber-rich, high-protein, and the “most immuneoactive, nutrient-dense plant yet discovered,” says Dr. Jeffrey Bland of Big Bold Health.  

You can learn more about it here. To get HTB nutrition flour go here.

Vegan buckwheat cornbread with HTB and almond flour is easy to make. It’s also high-protein and exceptionally rich.

You can load it with vegan cheese, jalapenos, garlic, chopped veggies, plant-based chorizo, and greens. It also rocks with organic corn kernels, kidney beans, and lightly sauteed leeks.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 and prep a 9 x 9″ baking pan with oil or wax paper. You can also use a cast iron skillet.
  • Mix the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and pink salt in a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl whisk the chia eggs, plant milk, and sour cream until smooth, then add to the dry ingredients.
  • Melt the vegan butter (I use organic Earth Balance) and add it in, stirring until smooth.
  • Spread evenly in the pan and bake 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out dry.

How to Make a Chia Egg

If you’re vegan and using chia eggs in this recipe, here’s how it’s done:

To make one chia egg mix a tablespoon of ground or soaked whole organic chia seed with three tablespoons of filtered water, wait for 10 minutes, mix again, then use.

Vegan egg substitutes are widely available, but chia is healthiest. It’s a complete plant protein with all nine essential amino acids. Full recipe here.

By the way, I typically blend HTB flour with sorghum, almond, millet, or bean. It’s also great with basic GF organic bread and pastry flours, preferably sprouted.
