🛒 Ingredients

10 servings

10
  • 2 whole eggs
  • 1 cup (200 ml) whole milk
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
  • 1½ cups (180 g) all-purpose flour, sifted
  • Pulp from 5 fresh corn cobs (about 2 cups / 250 g)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 465°F (240°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch (20 cm) bundt pan.

  2. 2

    Strip the kernels from the corn cobs and blend them briefly to extract the pulp. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Place eggs, milk, sugar, and butter in a blender and mix for 30 seconds until smooth.

  4. 4

    Add the sifted flour, corn pulp, and vanilla extract. Blend until the batter is completely lump-free.

  5. 5

    Add the baking powder and pulse for just 5 seconds to combine.

  6. 6

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35–40 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  7. 7

    Let the cake cool completely in the pan before turning out onto a wire rack.

💡 Chef's Tip

Fresh corn is key — it provides natural sweetness and a slightly fibrous texture that makes this cake unique. Frozen corn (thawed and blended) works in a pinch. For extra richness, swap 3 tablespoons of milk for sour cream.
