Healthy Recipe, Cornbread

This cornbread is free of oil, sugar, and cholesterol (what you’d find in many cornbread recipes), but full of classic, delicious cornbread flavor. From the Pritkin Longevity Center and Spa.

Ingredients

• 1 pound cornmeal
• 1/4 cup flour (stoneground whole-wheat)
• 2 teaspoons  baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon ground
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg ground

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups egg whites

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (cornmeal through Splenda) and mix well. Make a hole in the center and pour in the milk and vanilla. Use a wire whisk to gently mix in the liquids, using a circular motion.
3. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites until fluffy. Pour into mixture and mix in.
4. Pour mixture into muffin cups or cake tin, and bake in a hot water bath* at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
