Ingredients
- 1/2 cup medium yellow cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup vanilla whey protein powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/3 cup dried apples diced
- 1/4 cup packed dates roughly chopped
- 3 tablespoons pecans roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
- 1/4 cup 2% plain Greek Yogurt
- 1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and generously spray an 8x8 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
- Place the cornmeal into a small food processor and process until it has a finer texture, and becomes less grainy. About a minute. This will help your cornbread have a nicer texture.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground cornmeal, cornstarch, protein powder, salt, baking soda, baking powder and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.
- Add in the dried apples, dates and pecans and mix well. Use your spoon to break up any date that clump together.
- Make a well in the center of the mixture and add in the 1/4 of honey (don't melt it) and egg yolk. Lightly whisk the egg into the honey with a fork.
- Add in the apple sauce, Greek yogurt and apple cider vinegar and mixture the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan until the top looks just set, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20-22 minutes.
- Let the bread cool and then slice into bars and DEVOUR.
