This sweet corn cake is made with fresh corn, flour, sugar, and butter, resulting in a tender, flavorful cake that can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. The recipe takes about 50 minutes from start to finish and serves 8 people.

Ingredients

2 cups fresh corn kernels (about 4 ears of corn)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup milk
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
Blend Corn: In a blender, combine the corn kernels and milk. Blend until smooth.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the corn mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined.
Add Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
