Corn Flour Cake: A Delightful Treat to Share!

There's something incredibly comforting about a slice of homemade Corn Flour Cake. This cake stands out with its unique texture, blending the heartiness of cornmeal with a subtle sweetness that makes it absolutely irresistible. Picture it: a warm, golden cake fresh out of the oven, its aroma wafting through the kitchen, tempting everyone in the house.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups of cornmeal
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1 cup of wheat flour
  • 1 cup of oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 180 °C (350 °F). This ensures that your cake bakes evenly and thoroughly.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, sugar, and wheat flour. Give them a good whisk to blend them together.
  3. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the oil and crack in the eggs. Mix everything well until you achieve a smooth consistency.
  4. Incorporate milk: Gradually add the milk while stirring constantly. This step is crucial for creating a homogeneous mixture.
  5. Final touches: Sprinkle in the baking powder and mix gently until just incorporated. Be careful not to over-mix!
  6. Prepare for baking: Grease and flour a mold or cake pan to prevent sticking. Pour the batter into the prepared mold, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake: Place your cake in the preheated oven and bake for about 40 minutes, or until it turns golden and feels firm to the touch. A toothpick should come out clean when inserted into the center.
  8. Cool and serve: Once baked, let the cake cool for a few minutes in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature, as desired.
