158 Calorie Hearty Jalapeno Cornbread

Whole Foods makes amazing jalapeno cornbread - but it isn't gluten free - so I decided to try making my own version - (more variations of gluten and dairy free cornbread coming in the future!)

This makes a single serving - you may want to add more stevia/jalapenos depending on how sweet or spicy you want it to be - I topped mine with some Earth Balance Vegan Butter :)

Recipe:

1/3 cup corn flour - 145 cal

1 tbsp and 1 tsp almond milk - 3 cal

1/2 tsp stevia - 0 cal

2-3 jalapenos - 2 cal

1 tbsp egg whites - 8 cal                      

= 158 cal

1. Preheat over to 450 degrees
2.Mix together the corn flour, almond milk, stevia and egg whites
3. Chop up the jalapenos and stir into the batter
4. Press batter into small greased baking dish
5. Bake for 10-12 minutes - let cool, serve warm with butter if desired
