Ingredients
▢
1
cup
whole grain cornmeal
-
(yellow, uncooked)
▢
1 ½
cups
corn
-
(canned or frozen)
▢
2
tsp
baking powder
▢
1
cup
whole wheat pastry flour
▢
½
tsp
baking soda
▢
2
packets of Splenda sweetener
▢
1
tsp
table salt
▢
½
cup
reduced fat buttermilk
▢
2
large eggs
▢
2
tsp
vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat an 8-inch square cake pan with non-fat cooking spray (I prefer the butter flavored kind).
Combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder, Splenda, salt and baking soda in a large bowl. Mix well with a fork and set aside.
In a blender, add the corn and a few tablespoons of water. Pulse a few times until the corn is half blended - creamy, but still chunky.
Combine the blended corn, buttermilk, eggs and oil in a medium bowl; mix until blended.
Fold mixture into dry ingredients and blend. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake until a wooden pick inserted near the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Allow to cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
Remove from pan and let cool completely. Cut into 8 squares.
