Fresh Corn Cakes with Peach Sauce

These Fresh Corn Cakes with Peach Mustard Sauce will become a recipe favorite in your house. They are perfect on the side of soups, salads, or just on their own for a fun snack and a great appetizer to serve at a party.

The sauce is made by combining jam and mustard in a bowl and then stirring. The recipe calls for peach jam, but you can use apricot as well. 
These corn cakes are so easy to make. If you know how to flip pancakes then you can definitely make corn cakes. It only takes about 10 minutes or less to whip these up and then cook on the stove in batches. If you have an electric griddle, use it to cook the corn cakes, so you can cook several at one time! I love a good easy and quick recipe. I hope you enjoy these fresh corn cakes as much as I do, and make them before corn is out of season!
