Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Fresh corn kernels
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Sugar
- 1 can Sweetened condensed milk
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round or square baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
In a blender, combine the fresh corn kernels and sweetened condensed milk. Blend until smooth with a few small chunks of corn remaining for texture.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. You can use a hand or stand mixer for this step.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition.
Pour the blended corn mixture into the bowl with the creamed butter, sugar, and eggs. Stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
Stir in the vanilla extract to enhance flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pan de elote from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature, either plain or topped with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
