hourIngredients
170 gr 170 Nutiva Shortening – 3/4 cup
300 gr 300 Granulated sugar – 1 1/2 cups
3 large 3 Eggs
1 large 1 Lemon zest
350 gr 350 Simona’s Flour Mix – 2 1/4 cups
90 gr 90 Cornmeal – 3/4 cup
1 Tbsp 1 Baking powder
3/4 tsp 3/4 Baking soda
3/4 tsp 3/4 Salt
240 gr 240 Nondairy creamer (I use So Delicious Organic Creamer Unsweetend, Coconut) and 1 Tbsp of vinegar to create DF buttermilk – 1 cup
2 Tbsps 2 Glycerin
1 pint 1 Fresh blueberries
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 10″ baking pan and set aside.
- Beat shortening and the granulated sugar in a bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment on medium speed, until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add lemon zest, and beat on medium speed just until combined.
- Whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In a small bowl mix the non dairy buttermilk and glycerin. Alternately add flour mixture and milk mixture to shortening mixture in a few additions, beginning and ending with flour. Beat on low speed until well blended after each addition.
- Transfer batter to the greased baking pan, spreading evenly. Sprinkle with fresh blueberries.
- Bake in preheated oven until browned and a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, and cool in pan for at least 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- You can substitute unsalted butter for the shortening and milk for the non-dairy creamer.
