Cornbread, Southern Fried (Hoe Cakes)

By MarieR

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup cornmeal
• 1/3 cup self rising flour
• 1/3 cup low fat buttermilk
• 1 large egg
• oil for frying (I used about 3 tbsps coconut oil, but you can use whatever you like)

Preparation

Step 1

Directions:
Combine first 4 ingredients together in a bowl, mixing well. Mixture should be very moist but not soupy. Heat oil in skillet and drop by spoonfuls into oil. Cook til brown on one side and flip (it cooks kind of like a pancake) to brown on the other side. Place on plate with paper towels and blot any excess oil.
