Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8-inch square nonstick baking pan.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: If you don't have a nonstick pan, you can lightly grease a regular pan or line it with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Combining the dry ingredients first ensures the leavening agents are evenly distributed.

In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg whites with a whisk until they become light and foamy.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Foamy egg whites add lightness to the cornbread's texture.

Stir the nonfat buttermilk, apple juice concentrate, and grated carrot into the foamy egg whites.
Aproximativ 2 min.

Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients.
Aproximativ 1 min.

Gently fold the ingredients together with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour and make the cornbread tough.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and use the spatula to spread it into an even layer.
