Corn Bread Kugel

I created this recipe to go with chili con carne. Since chili has meat in it, I had to find a way to make corn bread without any milk products but still keep it moist. The corn and rice milk in this recipe do a great job making the bread moist and creating more of a kugel than a bread.

Ingredients

Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray an 8" square baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

Combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl, stir with a fork, and set aside. In a food processor or blender, process brown sugar, corn, and rice milk/vinegar mixture until combined, about 5 seconds. Add eggs and oil and process another 5-10 seconds. Use a rubber spatula to fold the wet ingredients into the dry ones. Barely mix, just make sure the dry ingredients are moistened. Pour batter into prepared baking dish, smooth surface. Bake until the top is golden brown and a knife blade (not a toothpick!) inserted in center comes out clean, about 35-40 minutes. Cool on rack for 10 minutes. Invert on a wire rack and then onto a serving plate. Wait about 10-15 minutes to cut.
