Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper. (I used a 9x9" baking dish, but an 8x8" also works.)
In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a small bowl make the flax egg by mixing the ground flax with ¼ cup of the milk.
In a small bowl or measuring cup mix the remaining ½ cup of milk with the lemon juice to make a buttermilk.
In a large bowl whisk the flax egg, vegan buttermilk, and maple syrup.
Add the drained corn kernels and the entire can of creamed corn. Stir well.
Add the flour mixture and stir until just combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
Bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool at least 10 minutes before slicing.
