Start your mornings with a golden stack of Sweet Cornmeal Corn Toasties—perfectly fluffy, slightly crispy, and irresistibly sweet. This quick and easy recipe combines the hearty texture of cornmeal with the richness of melted butter and the subtle sweetness of sugar, creating a delightful breakfast or snack option. The addition of fresh corn kernels adds bursts of natural sweetness and texture, making these toasties truly special. Ready in just 25 minutes, they’re cooked to golden perfection on a skillet and are best served warm with a generous drizzle of honey, a pat of butter, or your favorite sweet spread. A versatile treat that's perfect for family brunches or everyday indulgence!
In a medium mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and the egg until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly thick. If desired, gently fold in the fresh corn kernels.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or butter.
Using a ladle or 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the skillet to form small, round toasties. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set.
Carefully flip each toastie with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, or until golden and cooked through.
Remove the toasties from the skillet and place them on a wire rack or plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm, topped with butter, honey, or your favorite spreads for an added touch of sweetness. Enjoy!
