Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.33 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup canned cream-style corn
- 1 cup canned corn kernels, drained
- 0.5 cup yellow cornmeal
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to fully incorporate.
Stir in the cream-style corn and drained corn kernels, mixing until evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the corn cake to cool for at least 10 minutes in the baking dish before slicing and serving.
Enjoy warm or at room temperature as a side dish or dessert!
