Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven broiler.
  2. In a large bowl, combine corn kernels, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs.
  4. Add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the cheese and scallions.
Cooking
  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Pour the batter into the skillet, spreading it out evenly.
  3. Cook for about 10 minutes until the edges are golden.
  4. Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil for about 5 minutes, or until the top is browned and cheese is melted.
  5. Remove from oven, slice, and serve with salad greens or topped with fried eggs.

Notes

Cool completely before storing. Refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months. For reheating, crisp the edges in a dry skillet for a few minutes.
