Ingredients You Need for Spicy Corn Cakes [Vegan]

1 ¼ cups whole wheat bread crumbs, divided into ½ and ¾ cups
2 cups frozen corn, thawed
2 small Red Belgian peppers, or 2 small hot peppers or 1 medium size

How to Prepare Spicy Corn Cakes [Vegan]

If you are opting to make your own bread crumbs add whole wheat bread to a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Remove bread crumbs from food processor and set aside.
Add the corn and peppers to the food processor and pulse into a thick chunky consistency.
In a large bowl, add corn-pepper puree, ½ cup breadcrumbs, vegan mozzarella shreds, green onions, hot sauce, salt and pepper, and stir until combined.
Divide mixture into approximately 7 balls and flatten into thick patties. Refrigerate patties for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat a griddle pan to 350F, or a grill to medium-high heat.
Brush griddle pan or grill with olive oil.
In a small bowl, add remaining ¾ cup bread crumbs. Carefully coat the delicate patties in breadcrumbs on both sides and place on the griddle. Cook for approximately 5 minutes on first side. Drizzle the tops of the patties in
olive oil and very gently flip the patty over and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the outside is crisp and a deep golden brown color.
Serve spicy corn cakes with a side of salsa.
