Instructions

1. Pour ground flaxseed and water together into a sauce pan, stirring to kill the lumps, then leaving to simmer until it is thickened and gelatinous (like an egg). Refrigerate while mixing the other ingredients so it cools slightly before adding it to the wet ingredients (or sub for 1 egg + 1 egg white or yolk).

2. Whip the egg white until soft peaks form.

3. In a large bowl, combine cornmeal, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and salt.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together yogurt, brown sugar, flax+water, water, and applesauce.

5. Add to dry ingredients, Stirring in the apples and whipped egg white.
