Where to find ingredients
Look for the ingredients in the bakery aisle, fresh produce section, dairy case, and spice shelf at supermarkets or open-air markets. If needed, use finely grated hard cheese as a substitute for Parmesan.
Preparation method
- Carefully remove the kernels from the ears of corn, using a knife or a corn press
- In a blender, add the corn kernels, the eggs, the oil, the sugar and the milk
- Blend everything until you get a smooth, creamy mixture
- If the batter becomes too thin because the corn is very large, add a little wheat flour until it reaches a firmer consistency
- Mix the grated Parmesan cheese into the batter
- Finally, add the baking powder and stir gently to combine
- Grease a large pan or several smaller pans with butter and wheat flour
- Pour the batter into the pans and bake in a preheated medium oven at 180°C
- Bake for about 45 minutes, or until the cake is golden and firm to the touch
- Test with a toothpick to check whether it is baked through
