These savory cakes are sophisticated yet down-to-earth. If you want to serve them as appetizers, scale them down to 2” cakes and serve the guacamole and sour cream on the side for dipping instead of as a garnish.

- Whisk dry ingredients together with corn kernels, beans, cilantro, milk and 1 tbsp vegetable oil until a thick batter forms.
