🛒 Ingredients

15 servings

15
  • 3 cups fine cornmeal
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup neutral vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • Butter and flour for the pan

Directions

  1. 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. 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. 3

    Pour the batter into a large bowl, sprinkle in the baking powder, and fold gently with a spatula until just combined.

  4. 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. 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.
