This Pancake Saturday, I tried out a new recipe for corn (pan)cakes. Tasty and filling!
Corn (Pan)Cakes, serves 2 (plus one baby pancake for one little baby!)
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2-1 cup boiling water
- 1/2-1 cup flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 tsp vinegar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 banana, mushed
- oil for frying
- Combine cornmeal, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl.
- Pour 1/2 cup boiling water over the mixture and beat until thick.
- Pour 1 tsp. vinegar into a measuring cup and add milk to equal 1/2 cup. Let sit 5 minutes.
- Pour soured milk into mixing bowl.
- Mix flour, baking soda, and banana into bowl. Stir until smooth.
- Use a brush to lightly grease a skillet (this is my “trick” for all pancakes), and warm over medium-high heat.
- Pour mixture onto surface. When the edges start becoming firm and the pancake begins bubbling, flip to brown the other side. Enjoy!
I put each finished pancake on a plate in the oven on a low temperature to keep them warm until breakfast time! We especially like them topped with my apple salsa.
I’m still on a hunt for more pancake recipes for our weekly Pancake Saturdays. Share what you like!

Can’t wait till I’m done my diet to try those out. I am always on the looking for good corn flour recipes cause I eat mostly gluten free. :)

Hmm, this one’s half cornmeal and half regular flour, so I don’t think it’ll help you out on gluten free (unless I’m missing something)! Could corn flour replace the white flour here?

Hey, April! I’m GF, too, due to Celiac disease. You should hop on over to Mamawit’s sister site (haha…’cause we’re sisters, see,) http://www.threeinthree.com and check out my recipe page. I don’t have a ton right now, but will be adding several soon!

And you can always replace wheat flour with any finely ground flour, such as rice flour!
