CORNMEAL PANCAKES

By BobD

Ingredients

• YIELD 10-12 PANCAKES
• Butter for the skillet
• 3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/3 cup unbleached white flour
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons corn oil

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat a nonstick griddle, or with butter lightly grease a skillet, over medium heat while you mix the batter.

In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, salt, baking soda and flour.

In a separate large bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk and corn oil.

Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the liquid mixture. With a fork gently combine the ingredients until smooth.

Over low heat, using about 3 to 4 tablespoons of batter for each pancake, cook the pancakes on the griddle or in the greased skillet, about 3 minutes on each side.
