• 1/2 cup cornmeal

• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

• 1 tsp baking powder

• 1 tsp smoked paprika

• 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  2. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.

  3. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.

  4. Fold in the corn, green onions, and cheese, if using.

  5. Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes so the cornmeal can absorb some of the liquid.

  6. Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a skillet over medium heat.

  7. Drop about 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan, flatten slightly, and cook for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown.
