Ingredients
1/3 cup (80g) greek yogurt
1/4 cup (61g) whole milk
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
4 tbsp (56 grams) butter
1/4 cup frozen corn
2.5 tbsp (40 ml) maple syrup
1 egg, room temperature
1/2 cup (60 grams) cornmeal
1/4 cup (33 grams) wheat flour
1/4 cup (30 grams) AP flour
1/2 tbsp (6 grams) baking powder
1/2 tsp (3 grams) salt
1/8 tsp (2 grams) baking soda
Directions
- Preheat oven to 200 C. Whisk together greek yogurt, milk, and vinegar – set aside.
- Brown the frozen corn in small cast iron skillet with 1 tbsp butter over medium heat, then remove all corn, setting aside. Add the remaining butter and brown, swirling gently and watching carefully to ensure it doesn’t burn.
- Pour the butter into a glass bowl, then add the maple syrup, then the yogurt mixture. Wait until the mixture is fully cool before whisking in the egg.
- Mix together all dry ingredients: cornmeal, flours, baking powder, salt, baking soda. Then add to wet mixture with browned corn, stirring until no dry spots remain.
- Pour batter into cast iron pan, smoothing out if necessary, then bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown, and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
