Corny Corn Bread (Vegan and Wheat-Free)

This corny corn bread is vegan and wheat-free. We like these with jam or honey. Yum!

3. Blend chia seeds in a blender until smooth; add sucanat and agave nectar. Blend the mixture again until smooth.
4. Sift cornmeal, spelt flour, baking powder, and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add frozen corn kernels and chia seed mixture to the cornmeal mixture; stir and pour into prepared pan.
