Here Cornmeal Cake together with fresh coffee is something that cannot be missed on the table, but this cake here will win you over in such a way that you will even forgo the coffee!
But first, let’s talk about Bolo de Fubá and how it enchants Brazilians from the North to the South of the country.
The Cornmeal Cake on the Brazilian table
Cornmeal cake is an exceptional “thing” in Brazilian cuisine because its flavor and texture have meant that each region of the country presents the same recipe in different ways. We find it with guava, with cheese, with syrup, dry, wet, but we can always see cornmeal as the main ingredient. But its origin is linked to the fields found throughout the country, and because it is a cheap and easily accessible ingredient, cornmeal ended up being a common ingredient in kitchens in the interior of Brazil.
Advantages of making cornmeal cake
Easy to Find and Cheap Ingredients: The basic ingredients are easy to find and very cheap, so to make a simple cornmeal cake, you will need:
- cornmeal (corn flour),
- sugar,
- eggs,
- leite,
- oil or butter,
- baking powder and,
- sometimes grated cheese.
The combination of these ingredients makes a cake with a fluffy texture and fantastic flavor, as well as providing a base for many sweet or savory variations!
Simple Preparation: To make a very simple and quick cornmeal cake, first add all the dry ingredients, such as cornmeal, sugar and yeast and only then add the liquid ingredients, such as eggs, milk and oil or butter. Once this is done, just beat until you reach a homogeneous mass.
Delicious Variations: To say that there are regional variations in the cornmeal cake recipe is an understatement, after all, everyone has their own family recipe with their own details and flavors. Some people add fennel, cheese, grated coconut or even guava to the dough to add a special touch of flavor.
Tradition: Cornmeal cake is always linked to special moments, in celebrations such as June festivals, afternoon coffees and family celebrations it is practically impossible not to find a cornmeal cake decorating the table!
My Favorite Cornmeal Cake Recipe
Cornmeal cake is not only a delicacy appreciated for its comforting flavor, but it is also a representation of the richness and diversity of Brazilian cuisine. There’s never a shortage here because we easily swap “coffee with bread” for “coffee with cake”, so I’m always looking for new recipes for this delicious treat!
This is one of those recipes that appears in my life and I can’t stop making it. My friend Nice, who wasn’t exaggerating at all when she said it was the best cornmeal cake she’d ever eaten, passed it on to me and I completely agree with her! Nice, I’m with you friend!
Way of doing
So, do you know everything I wrote about separating the dry from the wet? Forget it and just add all the ingredients to the blender:
Ingredients:
– 3 cups of milk
– 1/2 cup coconut milk
– 3 eggs
– 3 tablespoons of softened unsalted butter
– 2 cups of cornmeal

Beat well, then add 1 tablespoon of baking powder and beat a little more just to mix. Place in a preheated oven in a greased and floured pan until the surface is golden brown.
