Instructions:

Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F) to ensure it’s adequately heated for baking.
-
-
Prepare Baking Tin: Grease a rectangular baking tin with olive oil spray, ensuring to cover its surface evenly. Line the tin with parchment paper to prevent the cornbread from sticking.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, sift together the self-rising flour and baking powder. Add the polenta and cracked black pepper to the flour mixture, stirring until well combined.
-
Prepare Sun-Dried Tomatoes: Rinse the sun-dried tomatoes if they are in oil, then roughly chop them into smaller pieces. Incorporate the chopped tomatoes into the dry ingredients, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
-
Prepare Liquid Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they reach a smooth consistency. Gradually add the soymilk and Tabasco sauce to the beaten egg whites, mixing well to combine.
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the liquid ingredients into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Add the creamed corn to the mixture as well. Stir all the ingredients together until they are thoroughly incorporated, ensuring there are no lumps in the batter.
-
Bake: Transfer the batter into the prepared baking tin, spreading it evenly to create a smooth surface. Place the tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the cornbread turns a beautiful golden brown on top.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing. Serve the cornbread warm as a delightful accompaniment to spicy casseroles, chilis, or any dish of your choice.
