Oil-Free Air Fryer Onion Rings

Plant-Based Cornbread Stuffing
This cornbread stuffing can easily be the centerpiece of any holiday meal. Give me some gravy and put it all over mashed potatoes, and I am good to go.
I confess, the main reason I make mashed potatoes is so they can serve as a vessel for good gravy. I’ve made some version of this potato topper for many years around the holidays, and this is my latest update. I eliminated the flour as a thickener and used puréed cauliflower to add that desired creaminess.
Whole Food, Plant-Based Cornbread
