Breakfast and Brunch Recipe › Grandma Mary's Cornmeal Pancakes

Make pancakes with cornmeal! It tastes amazing and was originally made by my great-grandma Mary who made them when she couldn't afford anything more than cornmeal.

Ingredients

• ½ cup white sugar
• ½ cup oil
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup cornmeal
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup milk, or more as needed
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Cooking Directions

1. Combine sugar, 1/2 cup oil, and eggs in a bowl. Stir in flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in 1/2 cup milk. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, and stir to desired thickness.
2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Working in batches, spoon 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the hot skillet; cook until bubbly on top and golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the bottom, 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove to a plate and repeat to make remaining pancakes.
