How to make cornmeal bread with grated cheese:

To make cornmeal bread with grated cheese in a simple way, start by beating the eggs, oil, sugar, milk and salt in a blender until you get a smooth cream.

Tip: use a standard measuring cup (200 ml), ie one size smaller than the cream cheese cup.

Gradually add the cornmeal, beating between each addition to help incorporate better. Also add the grated cheese and yeast and stir with a spoon, just mixing, without mixing.

Tip: if the cornmeal bread dough becomes too dense to blend in a blender, transfer to a bowl and mix in the rest of the cornmeal, cheese and yeast.

Preheat the oven to 180ºC and, in the meantime, butter a medium-sized round cake pan (20 to 22 cm) with butter or oil. Sprinkle wheat or cornmeal throughout.

Tip: instead of wheat or cornmeal, you can use refined sugar or crystal to sprinkle the mold. This will help give a caramel look to your homemade cornmeal cake!

When the oven is hot, place the batter in the tin and bake for 30 to 40 minutes - use the toothpick test to confirm the consistency of the cake. Then remove the oven from the oven and wait for it to cool before unmolding.
