Easy 4-Ingredient Corn Bread

Easy 4-Ingredient Corn Bread

This corn bread has the texture of custard rather than a bread, but in Mexico, we call it bread. So, I decided to call it corn bread. You only need four ingredients to make it, yes, you read it well, only four ingredients. And the best part, everything goes into the blender! Do I need to say it’s easy to make? I don’t think so!
The corn we use in Mexico is so different from the one you will commonly find here at the supermarkets. Our corn is not as sweet and juicy as the one found in the USA, but it does have a higher content of starch, which is why when we try to make typical cornbread recipes from Mexico, the results vary. The bread will be dried and with a solid texture if using Mexican fresh corn.
This recipe is courtesy of “Kiwilimón”, my friends from a very popular food and recipe website in Mexico, who say that this is one of the most-loved recipes on their site. I’m sure you will love it, too. Give it a try and come back to tell me your results. At home, we ate the whole bread in
less than 24 hours!

Recipe Notes

As mentioned above, this recipe will render a very moist bread, the consistency will be very similar to that of a crumbling flan. If you want, you can add one cup of all-purpose flour to have a more solid bread. If you decide to add the flour, do so at the end of the mixing process.
