This is a recipe from Emily. Sorry I took so long getting it on here.
For a savory breakfast, top corncakes with sour cream and store bought salsa verde mixed with scallions, fresh cilantro, and lime juice. The recipe did not specify amounts on the toppings, so it is up to you how much cilantro, etc, to put in the salsa verde. For a sweet version you can spread it honeybutter, or honey and Greek yogurt, or just maple syrup.
1 can (14.75oz) creamed corn
1 cup yellow cornmeal (divided in half)
1/2 cup water
2 tbsp olive oil
1 lg egg
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbs sugar (optional)
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
Heat creamed corn in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 1/2 cup of cornmeal. Whisk in water, oil, egg. In a bowl mix the remaining 1/2 cup cornmeal with flour, salt, sugar (optional), and baking powder. Stir in wet ingredients into dry ingredients. The consistency is a thick batter, not like pancake batter). Heat griddle over medium heat (brush lightly with olive oil, we have a nonstick griddle so we didn't do that). The original recipe said to drop it in batches of a 1/4 cup onto the griddle. I did it with a 1/3 cup. I dropped it on and sort of spread it out a bit because it is pretty thick it doesn't really spread out on its own. Cook, turning once.
These corn cakes are dense. They made 8 for me. Really yummy with the sour cream and salsa verde. We liked them.
