Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously butter a 9-inch pie dish. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a mixing bowl, combine fresh corn kernels, diced habanero pepper, eggs, water, and honey. Use an immersion blender to puree until almost smooth. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Add flour, melted butter, cornmeal, salt, and baking powder to the corn mixture. Whisk until just combined, being careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish. Gently shake the dish to ensure the batter is evenly distributed. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the center of the preheated oven until the cake is golden brown and a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (45-55 minutes)

06

Step

Allow the cake to cool until warm or room temperature before garnishing and serving. (30 minutes)

For a milder flavor, use half a habanero pepper or substitute with a pinch of cayenne pepper.
Freshly grated lime zest adds a bright, citrusy note that complements the sweetness and spice.
Garnish with fresh berries, a dollop of crème fraiche, sour cream, Mexican crema, or whipped cream for a delightful finishing touch.
