Preparation

Barvecue & Vegetable Mixture

  1. Melt the vegan butter in a pan, and sauté onions until they’re translucent. Add garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes.
  2. Add corn and beans, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are cooked through. Add barbecue sauce (see below for recipe).

BBQ Sauce

  1. Whisk together all ingredients until thoroughly combined.

Cornbread

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  2. In a liquid measuring cup, measure out non-dairy milk and add vinegar. Set aside.
  3. Add the dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Then add the non-dairy milk mixture and vegan butter, and whisk one more until a thick but pourable batter is formed.
  4. Add more cornmeal or gluten-free flour if the mixture is too wet or non-dairy milk if it’s too thick.

Pie

  1. Place the Barvecue mixture in the bottom of a round or square oven-proof dish.
  2. Pour the batter over the mixture and place in the oven for 15-18 minutes. Check for readiness with a toothpick.
  3. Remove from the oven once fully cooked and evenly sprinkle NUMU shredded cheese on top. Place back in the oven or under a broiler for 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts.
  4. Sprinkle the smoked paprika on top, and serve.
