With simple and super nutritious ingredients, you can enjoy this treat without worries.
This cake is ideal for an afternoon snack or family gatherings, where everyone will love it.
And the best part is that it’s super easy to make, taking little time in the oven.
The combination of fresh corn and coconut milk creates an amazing texture and flavor!
Shall we get started with the recipe?
Ingredients:
1 cup (200g) of fresh corn
4 eggs
2 teaspoons of extra virgin coconut oil
2 cups (400g) of sugar
4 cups (960ml) of lactose-free whole milk
1⅓ cups (170g) of fine cornmeal
4 teaspoons of sifted cornstarch
3 teaspoons of baking powder
100g of shredded coconut
Instructions:
Blend the corn, eggs, coconut oil, sugar, milk, and cornstarch in a blender until smooth.
Add the cornmeal and shredded coconut, blending for a few more seconds.
Turn off the blender, add the baking powder, and mix well.
Transfer the batter to a greased pan and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 35 minutes or until golden.
Do not open the oven before 35 minutes.
Perform the toothpick or fork test to check if it’s ready. If the toothpick or fork comes out clean, the cake is ready.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool before unmolding.
Additional Tips:
Use a round pan that is 20 to 30 cm in diameter.
For an even more special touch, you can add fillings like guava paste or even a layer of unsweetened coconut cream.
It’s amazing!
You can also vary the pan size, making cupcakes or mini cakes for individual servings.
If you want a more intense flavor, a pinch of cinnamon can add a unique touch to your cake.
Culinary Secret:
The secret to a perfect corn cake is the baking time.
Let it bake for the right amount of time so it becomes golden and fluffy.
Always preheat the oven to ensure even baking.
