- 4 ears of corn, kernels removed (about 4 cups)

- 1 small yellow onion, sliced into 0.5 cm thick circles.
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into 0.5 cm thick rings.
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced diagonally into 0.5cm thick slices.
Topping
- 2.5 cups premium flour
- 2.5 tsp baking powder
- 2 teaspoons of sugar
- 0.5 tsp of soda
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, very cold, + 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 170 gr. sharp yellow cheddar, grated (about 1.5 cups)
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 cup sour cream, very chilled
- 3/4 cup milk, very cold
Preparation:
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Combine the Parmesan, parsley, rosemary, thyme, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a medium bowl.
- Vegetables:
Place the eggplant slices in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared pan, halving or overlapping them slightly if necessary. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the Parmesan-herb mixture (Step 1).
- Top with a single layer of tomatoes, then sprinkle the corn kernels evenly over the tomatoes and add another 1/4 cup of the Parmesan-herb mixture.
- Add a layer of yellow zucchini slices, then slice the onion into rings and place on top.
- Add a layer of bell pepper, then another 1/4 cup of the Parmesan-herb mixture.
- Top with a layer of zucchini slices and sprinkle evenly with the remaining Parmesan and herb mixture. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Using a large spoon, spread the dough evenly over the vegetables in mounds (about 0.5 cups each).
- To make the batter, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl. Grate the cold butter coarsely and add it to the flour. Stir until all the butter pieces are coated. Add the cheddar and green onions.
- Make a well in the center, add the sour cream and milk to the flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon just to moisten the flour.
- Bake until the crust is deep golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges and the vegetables are easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Brush the dough with melted butter and let rest for 20 minutes before serving.
