Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Yellow cornmeal
- 200 grams Canned corn, drained
- 2 Ripe bananas (medium), mashed
- 3 Eggs
- 200 ml Whole milk
- 100 grams Unsweetened applesauce
- 100 ml Coconut oil, melted
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or a bundt pan with a little coconut oil and set aside.
In a blender, combine the canned corn, mashed bananas, eggs, milk, applesauce, vanilla extract, and honey. Blend until smooth.
In a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center and pour the blended wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Add the melted coconut oil and gently fold everything together with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix to ensure the cake remains light and fluffy.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with the spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Once done, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Enjoy your sugar-free Bolo de Milho as a delightful treat or as a sweet breakfast option!
