1 cup fresh or frozen corn (for added texture)
1/2 cup shredded cheese (such as cheddar) for a savory twist
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon for a hint of warmth
Honey or maple syrup for drizzling
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2: Combine Dry Ingredients
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients
Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the sour cream, milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures
Mix Together: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. If you’re adding corn or cheese, fold it in gently at this point.
Avoid Overmixing: Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cake dense.
Step 5: Bake the Cake
Pour into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
Step 6: Cool and Serve
