Recipe: Low Fat Corn Spoon Bread

My kids love the corn side-dish served at the Chi-Chi's chain. Have tried to duplicate on my own, but to no avail. Hope someone can help me. Many thanks.

for "Corn Spoon Bread". The article it is adapted from Chi-Chi's Mexican
Restaurante's "Sweet Corn Cake" recipe. Hope you enjoy it!
Corn Spoon Bread
1 c thawed frozen corn kernels
1/2 c evaporated skimmed milk
1/3 c instant nonfat dry milk pwoder
3 T honey
2 t vanilla extract
1/2 t cinnamon
1/2 c + 2 T yellow cornmeal
1/2 t baking soda
1 c nonfat buttermilk
1 egg, well beaten
1 T melted margarine
In small nonstick skillet, combine corn kernels, evaporated milk, milk
powder, 1 T. of the honey, 1 t. of the vanilla and 1/4 t. of the cinnamon;
cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until liquid has been absorbed
and kernels are lightly browned and sticky, 8-10 minutes; set aside.
Preheat oven to 325; spray 1 quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In small bowl, combine 2 T. cornmeal, baking soda, 1/4 t. cinnamon; set aside.
In medium saucepan, bring 1 c. water to a boil; gradually add the
remaining 1/2 c. cornmeal, stirring constantly to break up lumps, until
all cornmeal is absorbed. Remove from heat and stir in the buttermilk,
the cooked corn kernels, egg, the remaining 2 T. honey, margarine and the
remaining 1 t. vanilla; beat until smooth.
Add reserved cornmeal mixture and beat until just combined; pour into
prepared baking dish. Bake until firm but spoonable, and lightly browned
along edges, 10 15 minutes. Serve warm, using an ice cream scoop.
