A soft, cheesy corn “pancake” made in the air fryer, then folded like a taco around cream cheese, ham, and fresh tomato. Warm, a little sweet, and genuinely better than bacon and eggs.
Instructions
- 1
Empty a can of sweet corn into a bowl. Crack in 1 egg and add the shredded mozzarella. Stir into a smooth, melty mixture.
- 2
Set a ring mold on a sheet of parchment, adjust to size, and spoon the mixture in to shape a round.
- 3
Carefully transfer the parchment to the air fryer and cook at 180°C (350°F) for 10 minutes, until warm and golden.
10:00 - 4
Turn it out onto a board and peel away the parchment.
- 5
Spread a smooth layer of cream cheese all the way to the edges. Add a few slices of ham and some tomato.
- 6
Fold in half like a soft taco and garnish with a sprig of basil.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the corn round hold together without flour?
Yes — the egg and mozzarella bind it as they set. Let it cool a minute before folding so it stays intact.
Fresh or frozen corn instead of canned?
Both work. Thaw and pat frozen corn dry, or cut kernels from 1–2 fresh cobs, so excess moisture doesn’t keep the round from setting.
Can I use a different cheese?
Any good melting cheese works — cheddar or a mozzarella blend. Mozzarella gives the cleanest stretch and the mildest, sweetest match for the corn.
