: The tasters have gone off on an adventure so it's all up to me! But I'm quite satisfied. I can't distinguish any difference. (The only substitutions were plant shortening instead of butter and almond yogurt for sour cream.)

Looks good!

Interesting, I have never had spoon bread, so I wouldn’t know the difference.
Swamp Daddy
I've never had corn pudding before
mimi
heylisa
: It's a great side dish.

Swamp Daddy
: I learned of it from reading the Jiffy corn bread box.
heylisa
I've never had it. I have seen the recipe on the Jiffy box, though.
Swamp Daddy
A corn bread box? Is it hard to make corn bread or is the mix to just more convenient? i've enjoyed corn bread, but never made it.

Great News for everyone!!

Ooooooo! Corn bread casserole is a family favorite. I never thought about a non-dairy version.
Άτροπος
Did you make up the changed recipe, or find it somewhere?
mimi
Swamp Daddy
: I'd guess the mix is just more convenient.
Άτροπος
Swamp Daddy
: Jiffy corn bread muffins
mimi
✩`*•.¸✷¸.•*´✩
: Yes!
mimi
Άτροπος
: I followed the original recipe as much as possible, since everyone in my family likes it. I'll post photos of what I substituted.

Corn pudding is soul food and I have had it once before made by a pro and it was heavenly. Almost a dessert!
mimi
Άτροπος
: Instead of 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup Spectrum all-vegetable shortening. Instead of 1 cup sour cream, 1 cup Kite Hill plain, unsweetened almond milk yogurt.
mimi
🐾Cindy🐾
: Yes!!!
Άτροπος
Thank you! My friend is trying to cut out dairy because of gut troubles. I still have time to get the substitute ingredients and make a version she should tolerate well
mimi
Άτροπος
: Excellent! I had to bake it about 55 minutes, which is longer than the recipe suggests. You can tell from how firm the center feels.
Annie
Does that ever look good!
mimi
Annie
: Comfort food!
Annie
Yes!
Fly Fisher
I think your nailed it. That looks fabulous!
mimi
Fly Fisher
: I'm amazed! I thought I'd have to try more than one method.
Fly Fisher
I’m making corn pudding with the fresh corn I processed this summer.
mimi
Fly Fisher
: Oh, what a treat that will be!
Godtess
hum. I've never heard of almond milk yogurt. How does it taste?
mimi
Godtess
: The consistency is much the same as regular milk yogurt. It does have a slightly nutty flavor.

loves spoon bread, but I’ve got to be careful with the ingredients
Άτροπος
What was the verdict from the consumers?
mimi
say, Grace#🟦
: What in particular bothers you?
mimi
Άτροπος
: So far, I'm the only consumer. One more is about ready to try!
say, Grace#🟦
GMO corn with high concentrations of chemicals, flour/wheat products, and, not in this recipe, white potatoes. Between rheumatoid arthritis, & a few other bothersome issues I’ve narrowed things down to these 3 foods. Every time I have even the smallest amount of any of them my body revolts in one way or another
mimi
say, Grace#🟦
: I'm glad you've sorted out the problems. Although I know how hard it is to avoid specific ingredients.
say, Grace#🟦
mimi
: it can be tough, especially at home. May made potato leek soup last week, one of my favorites, but I abstained
mimi
say, Grace#🟦
: I'm sorry. Tough but necessary.
Gingo!
now I want leek soup and corn pudding
mimi
Gingo!
: Mmmmm!!!
