Where to find ingredients
Fresh corn on the cob is found in the produce section; dairy products and eggs in the refrigerated aisles; baking supplies in the pantry staples section of most supermarkets.
Preparation method
- Carefully cut the corn kernels off the cobs using a sharp knife
- Place the corn kernels, eggs, oil, sugar, and milk into a blender
- Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy
- If the batter appears too thin due to the juiciness of the corn, add a small amount of all-purpose flour until it reaches a thicker consistency
- Fold the finely grated Parmesan cheese into the batter
- Add the baking powder last, stirring gently by hand to incorporate it
- Grease a large cake tin or several smaller tins with butter and dust lightly with flour
- Pour the batter into the prepared pans and place in an oven preheated to 180°C (350°F)
- Bake for approximately 45 minutes or until the cake is golden brown and firm to the touch
- Insert a toothpick into the center to check if it comes out clean
- Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool completely before removing it from the pan
