Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh sweet corn kernels (about 2 ears of corn)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, for added flavor)

How to Make Creamy Sweet Corn Cake

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon (if using).
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
6. Fold in the sweet corn kernels gently, making sure they are evenly distributed.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure your butter is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
• Use fresh corn for the best flavor, but frozen corn can work in a pinch—just thaw and drain it first.
• Don’t overmix the batter; mix until just combined to keep the cake light and fluffy.

Easy Variations

• Add a splash of lemon zest to brighten the flavor.
• Incorporate shredded coconut for a tropical twist.
• Top with whipped cream and fresh berries for an extra indulgent dessert.

What to Serve With It

• A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic pairing.
• Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side.
• A drizzle of honey or maple syrup for added sweetness.
