The recipe in that link sounds really good! I wonder if hubby would think yum or yuck when I read the ingredients to him?

I'd have to sub cornstarch for the flour to make it GF.

My famous corn casserole:

Double recipe for 13x9 pan
Great Pan
Preheat oven 350

1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (14.75 ounce) can creamed corn
1 (8.5 ounce) Jiffy cornbread mix
1 cup sour cream
½ cup butter, melted
1 large eggs, beaten
8 oz of cheese

Mix everything together and put in pan. Bake for 30-40 minutes - when center is firm.

This is very much like the jalapeno cornbread recipe that I use.

This is a simple but very good cake.

Italian Water Cake

Ingredients:
2 cups cake / pastry flour
1¼ cups powdered / icing sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 cup plus 2 1/2 teaspoons water (room temperature)
3¼ tablespoons vegetable oil (I use corn or sunflower) (or melted butter or light olive oil)
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions:
Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C). Grease and flour a round 8 inch cake pan.
Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt into a large bowl.
Add the water, vegetable oil and vanilla, beat on medium speed until completely combined.
Pour into the prepared cake pan and bake for about 40-45 minutes. Test for doneness with a toothpick, when it comes out dry or a few crumbs attached it's done. Let cool completely then dust with powdered sugar.
