Bolo de Fubá – Brazilian Cornmeal Cake

Jump to recipe

<p>In Brazil, sweet cornmeal cake (called <em>Bolo de Fubá</em>) is a staple for breakfast or for an afternoon snack with coffee. In some homes, the cakes are made with cheese or coconut for a rich, dense consistency (commonly called <em>Bolo de Fubá Cremoso</em>). In this classic version, fine ground cornmeal encourages a delicate texture. As the cake cooks in the oven, it fills the kitchen with a sweet, warm aroma. Delicious slightly warm, or at room temperature, this light Brazilian Cornmeal Cake is not to be missed.</p>
