Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees, and grease a 9x13 size pan. 
  2. Cut leaves off of leeks, leaving the white stalk behind. Clean between any spaces on the stalk, because dirt hides!
  3. Mix eggs, yogurt, and oil in a bowl. Add cornflour into the egg mixture and whisk together. Let sit for 3 minutes. 
  4. Sift together dry ingredients and then add dry mixture to egg mixture (hand mix). Pour into pre-prepared pan.
  5. Mix together leeks, feta, and scallions in a bowl and then place on top of the cornbread mixture.
  6. Bake or 25-30 minutes and cut into squares. Enjoy!
