Fresh Corn Recipes – Corn Pancakes
Yesterday I made Monkey Boy and The Girl some fresh corn pancakes for their after school snack. We all know kids love pancakes, but did you know they {or at least mine} love corn pancakes too? Have you tried these before? If not, you should, because corn pancakes rule. Plus you can serve them for dinner too! Yee-Haw!
Ingredients
2 cup fresh corn kernels
1 cup flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
3/4 cup milk {I used 2%}
2 eggs
butter for the griddle
Directions
Place 1 cup corn kernels, the milk, eggs, salt and flour in a blender and give it a whirl until the batter is smooth. Fold in remaining 1 cup of corn kernels.
You can use a regular pan to cook these pancakes up or a pancake griddle/grill. I cook mine on a griddle because I am a freak and like to see 6 little pancakes all lined up n a pretty row. But if you are the 1 pancake per pan kind of person, that’s totally okay too.
Okay, back to the recipe.
Butter your grill, pan or griddle.
Pour 1/2 cup servings of batter on to the grill and cook like you would pancakes.
Serve with maple syrup or sour cream.
Wrap the leftovers in the refrigerator for a late night snack.
Yummalicious!

Years ago I saw a similar recipe but it used rosemary too. I usually serve them with bacon! Yum!
Aw, I thought these were going to be like pancakes with whole kernels in. That sounded good to me. Have you come across anything like that?
They do have whole kernels. The second cup is only folded in
Ahh, I see now. Was in a hurry reading the 1st time.
I make something similar but I omit the sugar. I serve them with slow oven roasted tomatoes, arugula, bacon and garlic aioli.
A perfect brunch.
I guess I should have guessed from the picture, but I didn’t realize how the corn would fly all over my counters when I was cutting it off.
I got it ready for the morning, and since its so late right now, I got the giggles.
Made these pancakes for dinner tonight and they received rave
reviews. Thanks for the tasty recipe!!
Oh My Stars Mavis! I made these this morning and my hubby downed four and my 15 month old little man tried to eat all of hubby’s. Now that he’s out the door to work I am frying up some bacon for my plate…Thanks for sharing!
You bet!
Just made these for an after-school, pre-gymnastics team snack for my boys. I had to use a little extra milk to get my crappy blender to mix it all, but we like our pancake batter a little runnier, so it worked out well. Delicious! It actually made more than I thought it would, so we have a few left over for breakfast, too (or maybe a late snack for me!).
Found this recipe while looking for your oatmeal waffle recipe. Since my hubbie is gluten free, I modified the recipe and subbed 1 cup of white rice flour for the regular flour. And didn’t fold in the 2nd cup of kernels since my young kiddos can get picky. It was a HUGE hit! Best pancake recipe I’ve ever made! Everyone gobbled them up.
