Directions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 400 °F (200 °C). Grease a round cake pan with butter and dust lightly with flour, tapping out the excess.
- 2
Add the cornmeal, eggs, oil, sugar, and milk to a blender. Blend on medium speed for about 90 seconds until the batter is completely smooth.
- 3
Pour the batter into a large bowl, sprinkle in the baking powder, and fold gently with a spatula until just combined.
- 4
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- 5
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then unmold onto a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
💡 Chef's Tip
Swap regular milk for coconut milk for a tropical twist. A pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract added to the batter takes it to the next level. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
