Pan de Elote

Ingredients

Sweet corn

2 cups, fresh or canned (drained)

All-purpose flour

1 cup

Sugar

1 cup

Baking powder

2 teaspoons

Salt

1/2 teaspoon

Eggs

3 large

Milk

1/2 cup

Unsalted butter

1/2 cup, melted

Vanilla extract

1 teaspoon

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a blender or food processor, blend the sweet corn until smooth. If using fresh corn, you can also leave some texture for added crunch.
3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the corn puree, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and the batter is smooth.
4. Pour the batter into the greased baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula to ensure even baking.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and the top is lightly golden.
6. Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm, optionally with a pat of butter or a drizzle of honey.
