Corn Toasties

[ts]
Short and sweet, this one.

We saw these corn toasties at A Good Appetite and promptly forwarded the recipe to CSC, our resident baker. And very promptly afterwards, she made them!

This is Kat's recipe, and the recipe can be found here.

Between two kiddies and me, these corn toasties didn't even last a day! To be exact, they lasted a maximum of 2 hours.



I can't help myself and my cornmeal-love.

Great on its own, and it could be either eaten as a sweet snack or used in a savory dish. (We were thinking that we could pair it with some sort of Mexican-inspired braised pork dish, for example. Or chili, hehe.) Delicious and versatile.

I [heart] cornmeal.


P.S.
After I wrote up this post, I went to the kitchen and discovered that CSC has made a new batch of this! Wow! She must be psychic.

  7. Yup - this is looking mighty good. You can spruce it up a bit - maybe parsley, garlic, and parm in the batter. Or even smoked cheese and then toast it - yup, the possibilities are definitely endless.

  8. You are now officially my new best friend who I adore beyond words for making these and sharing the recipe. Having grown up on corn toasties and being deprived of them for decades has been sad to say the least. This is an awesome and nostalgic post, thanks a bunch.

    Haha... but I don't want to be "helped" out of my cornmeal addiction.

    ben:
    Haha, sure -- you just have to compete with her 3 kiddies for her attention.

    yankee:
    We actually didn't know what corn toasties were! This was the first time we've ever had them. =)Certainly won't be the last.
