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.

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.

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 vegan 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 organic bread and pastry flours, preferably sprouted.
