🥘 Ingredients

10 items

• 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.5 cups Buttermilk
• 1 large Egg
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil or butter (for greasing the pan)

📝 Instructions

8 steps

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the yellow cornmeal, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

2. In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter until smooth.

3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should still have some small lumps.

4. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with vegetable oil or butter.

5. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spacing them apart to avoid overcrowding.

6. Cook the pancakes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

7. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

8. Serve the cornbread pancakes warm with butter, maple syrup, or your favorite pancake toppings.
