Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Cornmeal
- 100 grams All-purpose flour
- 10 grams Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 240 milliliters Coconut milk
- 120 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 120 grams Vegan yogurt
- 150 grams Canned corn kernels, drained
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to distribute evenly.
In a blender, add the granulated sugar, coconut milk, vegetable oil, vegan yogurt, drained canned corn, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.
Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring that the corn kernels are well incorporated.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold to combine, being careful not to overmix the batter.
Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, serve the cake slices as is, or with a dusting of powdered sugar for added sweetness.
