Ingredients
- 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 cup Skim milk
- 2 large Egg whites
- 0 Olive oil cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Lightly spray an 8x8-inch baking dish with olive oil cooking spray and set aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, honey, skim milk, and egg whites until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until fully incorporated. Do not overmix, as this could make the cornbread dense.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9
Serve warm, and enjoy!
