Corn Cakes

Source
Grandma's Notepad (handwritten, p. 46)
Serves
6 small

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 c. cornmeal
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp honey
  • 1 egg
  • Milk (quantity unclear on the card, marked with a “?”)
  • Olive oil

Steps

  1. Sift the cornmeal and flour. Add the salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Whisk.
  2. Add the milk gradually.
  3. Add the egg.
  4. Consistency should be like thick cream.
  5. Heat the griddle with about 2 Tbsp oil.
  6. Ladle the batter onto the griddle.

Notes

  • Milk quantity is unclear on the page (a “?” is written next to “milk”).
  • One word in the mixing step, right before “salt,” was hard to make out — worth double-checking against the original.
  • No cook time or temperature given.
