    Corn Cakes made with fresh corn and cheese are a great alternative to cornbread. A great way to use up extra corn and so easy to make.

    I have been so busy lately that I haven’t had time to cook as you can see from the last few posts.  I thought I would share this recipe so that you could try it out if you see fresh corn at the farmer’s market this weekend.

    I was a little bored with cornbread so I tried these little corn pancakes for a change of pace.  The fresh corn and cheese make these so moist and full of flavor. The recipe makes a lot.  I placed them on a wire wrack in the oven to keep them warm while I cooked all of them. This didn’t dry them out but kept them the perfect temperature for serving. The recipe called for wet mozzarella but we decided that cheddar or a spicy jack would be nice too.  They were a great addition to the roasted chicken I had picked up from the grocery.   We don’t have fresh corn here yet but we are getting some from South Carolina and so far it has been delicious. 

    I re-heated the leftovers in the toaster oven a week later and they were even better.
