Although we live in a suburban area, we are lucky to have plenty of farms nearby where we can purchase fresh corn. But, when it's out of season, I substitute canned or frozen corn in this favorite recipe. —Anne Frederick, New Hartford, New York

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda

1 large egg, room temperature
1-1/2 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons butter, melted

In a bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients; make a well in the center. In another bowl, beat the egg, buttermilk and butter; pour into well and stir just until blended. Gently stir in corn; do not overmix. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
