Buttermilk Corn Bread
What's great about it
You can also add other ingredients before baking such as wilted chopped silverbeet or spinach and even make them dairy free by using dairy free milk or yoghurt in place of the buttermilk and using a spoonful of nutritional yeast in place of the cheese. These are also wonderful baked as individual muffins and topped with Persian feta before baking.

500 g (16 oz) sweet corn kernels
2 organic eggs
1 teaspoon sea salt
80 ml (2 3/4 fl oz/ 1/3 cup) extra virgin avocado or olive oil
300 ml (10 fl oz) buttermilk or natural yoghurt
180 g (6 1/4 oz) quick cook polenta
2 tablespoons gluten free cornflour or ground flaxseeds
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 bunch chopped chives
1 bunch chopped parsley
2 generous handfuls grated parmesan or cheddar cheese
