Cornbread Pancakes


This recipe is originally for cornbread waffles, but I made them into pancakes since I don't have a waffle maker. I served them with Santa Fe Chicken on top, and they were a huge hit! The chunks of corn kernels inside the pancakes give them a nice texture. This recipe makes several pancakes, and they were just as good the next night. I just placed them in the toaster oven for a couple of minutes, and they were as fresh as the night before. I'll definitely be repeating this recipe in the future.



Cornbread Pancakes

Ingredients
:
1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 Tablespoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 (11-ounce) can white shoepeg corn

Directions:
Stir together the first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Stir together egg and next 3 ingredients; add to cornmeal mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.

Bake in a preheated, oiled waffle iron just until crisp -OR- make them into pancakes on a buttered non-stick skillet.
Yield: 12 (4-inch) waffles or pancakes

I came across your blog last week, and I have already made several things from it, the first being the Santa Fe Chicken. My husband and I loved it, and it was even better according to him as a leftover. Wanted to say thank you for the recipes and I look forward to trying more.
