By Addie

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup finely ground or sifted stone-ground white or yellow cornmeal
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• Cooking spray
• Honey or maple syrup

Preparation

Step 1

Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl until well blended. Combine egg, milk, sour cream, and oil in a separate bowl; add to dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened.

Pour about 1/4 cup batter for each cake onto a hot griddle coated with cooking spray. Spread batter to about a 4-inch diameter using back of a spoon. Cook 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until edges start looking dry; turn and cook 1 to 2 more minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Serve cakes warm with honey or maple syrup. Yield: Makes about 1 dozen.
