Get ready for a mouthwatering delight! This seasonal twist on Hawaiian butter mochi will leave you craving more. This corn mochi cake is SO easy to make. (I tend to like things that are easy to make). The result is a very chewy, toasted corn mochi cake with a hint of sweetness. Did I mention that this is also gluten free?
The result? A gooey, chewy, and irresistibly delicious cake with crisp edges. Trust me, this is the best corn creation of the summer. Plus, it’s incredibly easy—all ingredients go into the blender. The only challenge? Patience while the cake cools before indulging! As a health-conscious, organic produce lover, I couldn’t resist blending fresh, local organic corn into the batter. If you can’t find organic, try to use at least non-GMO corn.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 ½ cups corn kernels, preferably fresh cut from 2-3 cobs
- ½ cup full fat coconut milk
