FRESH CORN CAKES
Corn's always been the basis of my favorite recipes-in fact, these corn cakes were one of the first things I made for my husband. For dinner, they're nice with fresh fruit salad and ham. They're also great with breakfast sausage and orange juice. Tom works for the highway department on Mount Hood, and we live at its base. Our children are 19, 16 and 13.

SWEET CORN CAKES
These cakes are an ode to my home state of Kansas, which I adore so much that I have an outline of it tattooed on my neck! Kansas has the dreamiest and sweetest corn you ever did eat. The polenta in this recipe produces a perfect, slightly dense, not-too-sweet dessert that's somewhere between cornbread and cake.

No more corn muffin mix! I added chopped jalapenos and lots of grated cheddar cheese to these for last night's dinner of tomato-garlic soup and salad.

- Combine ingredients and pour into prepared muffin tins.

Tips:
- Use fresh sweet corn. Fresh sweet corn has the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh sweet corn, you can use frozen or canned sweet corn, but the flavor will not be as good.
- Don't overcook the sweet corn. Overcooked sweet corn will be mushy and lose its flavor. Cook the sweet corn just until it is tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add some vegetables to the sweet corn cakes. Vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and zucchini add flavor and texture to the cakes. You can also add herbs like cilantro or basil for extra flavor.
- Serve the sweet corn cakes with your favorite dipping sauce. Sweet corn cakes are delicious served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
Conclusion:
Sweet corn cakes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish or snack. They are perfect for summer cookouts and potlucks. With a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of sweet corn cakes that everyone will love.
