It gives the corn cakes the perfect texture. Canned corn can be substituted, just make sure to drain it well.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Masa Harina:<\/strong> This Mexican flour can be found at most grocery stores. If you can\u2019t find it, then corn meal is a great substitute! If the batter is too sticky, then I suggest you put extra <a href=\"https:\/\/www.target.com\/p\/bob-39-s-red-mill-organic-masa-harina-24oz\/-\/A-88744091#lnk=sametab\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Masa Harina<\/a> on your hands to help shape the cakes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Skillet vs Oven:<\/strong> I love the crisp outer edge from cooking the cakes in a skillet and they also cook faster. However, you can cook these in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through the baking time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Southwest Drizzle:<\/strong> When I recreated this recipe, I wanted to simplify every step! Any <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/the-best-homemade-taco-seasoning\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">taco<\/a> or Southwest seasoning will work for this southwestern sauce. I love the added chipotle flavor in the Southwest seasoning. You can add a splash of milk to thin it out if you prefer. Or make my <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/southwest-dressing\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Southwest Dressing<\/a> to have on hand when you make the corn cakes!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-quick-tips__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-quick-tips --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" alt=\"Close up should of corn cakes frying in skillet.\" class=\"wp-image-266638\" title=\"Homemade Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes are an explosion of delicious flavor in every bite!
