Expert Tips

Yellow cornmeal will give these corn cakes a buttery golden color, but white cornmeal can also be used.

Sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro on top of each stack.

These were yummy. Instead of 3 egg whites, I used the equivalent of 2 eggs using egg substitute, which I think equates to 1/2 cup egg substitute. I'm not a huge fan of refried beans though.
