These pancakes are an absolutely beautiful way to enter autumn. We have been dreaming about corn pancakes for a while and now we can’t stop making them. Using a touch of corn flour in the mix gives the most beautiful flavour! Add to that white corn and you end with a very unique pancakes recipe. Mexican Twist gone sweet!

White Corn and Ricotta Pancakes

-1 220g White Corn, drained

-¾ cups flour

-¼  cup corn flour

-1 ¼  tsp baking powder

-¼  tsp bicarb

-½ tbsp vanilla

-1 tsp cinnamon

-1 tbsp brown sugar

-½  cup milk

-¼  cup ricotta

-1 pinch of salt

-1 egg

- 1 tbsp butter, melted


1 Add half of the white corn, corn and regular flour, baking powder, bicarb, vanilla, cinnamon, milk, ricotta, salt, egg, sugar and melted butter to a blender.  Blend until smooth.

2 Fold the remaining white corn kernels into the batter and set a non-nonstick pan to medium heat. Add two tablespoons of the mixture for each pancake and cook until nicely golden-brown on both sides.

3 To serve, sprinkle with icing sugar and serve with honey or maple syrup to taste.


Notes

  • Greek yoghurt works great instead of ricotta!
  • White corn is not as sweet as yellow corn. The amount of sugar in this recipe is low but you can add more if you prefer sweeter pancakes. 
  • Using corn flour gives these pancakes such a beautiful flavour! Do not skip this step.
