Cornbread

Oil your pans and preheat the oven to 375 F.



PanMix all the dry ingredients together. Add the soymilk mixture, and mix only until blended.



Pour a thin layer of batter into each cup. Carefully spoon a strip of filling over the batter . (See photo at left.) Cover the filling with more batter. Try not to over-fill the molds.



Bake for about 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out without batter stuck to it. (It may have beans on it, though.) Allow to cool in the pan.
