•1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
•1
teaspoon baking soda
•1/2 teaspoon baking powder
•1 teaspoon
salt
•6-ounce container plain soy yogurt or coconut yogurt
•1/4 cup olive oil

chopped mild green chilies
•1/2 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

(dry) ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir together.
- Make a
well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in the yogurt, oil,
and half of the rice milk. Stir until well combined, adding more
rice milk as needed to make a smooth, slightly stiff batter.
