Preparation

Step 1

1. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Gradually add boiling water to make a ploppy consistency that will drop off the end of a spoon.

2. By the spoonful, drop onto a well greased, medium hot griddle or fry pan at 340° - 380° for 6 minutes until you see a dark brown ring form around the outside edge. Drizzle with oil then flip and cook an for additional 5 - 6 minutes.

3. Don't be afraid to press them down. South County Johnny Cakes are traditional eaten with just butter. Most South County folk believe that you should not use maple syrup!
