Instructions
Strawberries
If using date sugar to create juicy strawberries, add them to a bowl with 1 tablespoon of the date sugar. Set them aside in the refrigerators for about 10 minutes for them to become juicy.
Cashew Cream
To quick-soak the cashews, pour boiling water over them and let them sit for 10 minutes. Then, add to a blender with 3/4 cup non-dairy milk, vanilla, and maple syrup and blend until smooth. Remove to a container and refrigerate covered until ready to use.
Cake
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 8 x 8″ baking pan sprayed with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
Mix the ground flaxseeds and water in a small bowl and let sit for a few minutes while you prepare the dry ingredients.
In a large bowl, blend the dry ingredients: unbleached flour, almond flour, cornmeal, date sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, combine the non-dairy milk, applesauce, lemon juice, maple syrup, and the flax mixture.
Mix the dry and wet ingredients together just until moistened.
Pour into your prepared 8 x 8″ baking pan.
Bake at 400 degrees for about 20-25 minutes or until the cornbread is started to brown and bounces back when touched on top. Be careful not to overcook as it can become dry.
Divide the cake into 6 servings, top with strawberries and a couple of dollops of cashew cream.
Notes
Almond Flour: If you don't have almond flour, you can use whole wheat, but it makes it denserDate Sugar: Strawberries are naturally sweet but if you'd like more juice, use 1 tablespoon of date sugar and let them sit for a few minutes to become juicy.[nutrition-label]
