How to make it

6 steps. Take it one step at a time.

  1. Preheat your oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and grease a 9-inch round baking pan or a loaf pan with butter or cooking spray.

  2. Combine the corn kernels, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, melted butter

    In a blender, combine the corn kernels, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pulse until the mixture is combined but still has some texture from the corn; do not over-blend to a complete liquid.

  3. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

  4. Add the dry ingredients

    Add the dry ingredients to the blender or pour the wet mixture into the dry bowl. Stir gently until just incorporated.

  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

    50 min
  6. Allow the cake to cool

    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before slicing. It is best served warm or at room temperature.

A little kitchen wisdom

Using fresh corn off the cob provides the best texture and moisture, but canned or frozen kernels can be used if drained well.
