    Cornmeal Pancakes

    Hey all,

    Just got back from IHOP, and I really liked their new Corn Cakes. They had just the right mix of cornmeal and normal pancake stuff so that it was the consistency of a regular pancake.

    Anyone got a recipe for those, or something similar?

    Thanks,
    Sharon

    I haven't tried the IHOP cakes but Jiffy Cornbread mix has an awesome pancake recipe right on the box.

    When I click on that link, it shows the page that the recipe is on, but not the ingredients or directions. Every week I go to that site to see the weekly recipe and it always shows up, but this one doesn't. Anyone else having trouble viewing it? Darla

    To answer your question, no I don't think you can copy recipes from that site. You have to print them off. A pain, I know.

    Well, since the link was to a free recipe that was available only for a week and the link was posted almost two weeks ago I'm guessing you've missed the free period. Too bad, I missed the post as well and they sound yummy.

    Sheila mentioned in today's post that it was this week's recipe and that it was available until March 25th. I think I should be able to pull it up, but can't. Darla

    Never mind - My husband is fiddling with some settings and will be able to pull it up. My hard drive crashed last week and some settings went with it.

    Apparently not drinking coffee is not a good plan for me.

    Darla, I didn't have any trouble pulling the recipe up, so here it is. I love cornmeal pancakes but haven't tried these yet. KA Whole Grain Baking cookbook has a great recipe for blueberry cornmeal pancakes that I have made several times now.

    People on this board are so kind! Thank you. ( I hope the "top secret recipe police" don't find out that you posted it here. ) I have the KA whole grain book but haven't tried anything from it yet. I cook with whole grains all the time and am looking forward to trying some recipes from the big long thread devoted to that book. Darla

    Blueberry-Corn Pancakes

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Pancakes/Waffles

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1/2 cup whole yellow cornmeal -- (2 3/8 ounces)
    2/3 cup boiling water -- (5 3/8 ounces)
    3 Tablespoons butter -- melted (1 1/2 ounces)
    1/4 cup milk (1/4 - 1/3) -- (2 to 2 3/8 ounces)
    1 egg -- beaten
    1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour -- (1 5/8 ounces)
    2 Tablespoons sugar -- (7/8 ounce)
    1 Tablespoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 cup blueberries -- fresh or frozen (5 ounces)

    Place the cornmeal in a medium bowl. Pour the boiling water over it, stir the mixture thoroughly and let it sit for 15 minutes. This step allows the cornmeal to absorb the liquid, and it will be quite stiff at the end of 15 minutes. Stir in the melted butter to loosen the mixture. Measure the milk in a small liquid measuring cup; use the smaller amount if your berries are frozen. Beat the egg into the milk and stir the mixture into the cornmeal. Combine well to make sure there are no lumps. In a separate bowl, combine the pastry flour with sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the cornmeal mixture and combine with a few swift strokes. Let the batter sit for 15 minutes, then stir in the blueberries.

    Heat a nonstick griddle or a heavy skillet (preferably cast iron). If your surface is not nonstick, brush lightly with oil. You'll need very little fat to cook these pancakes. When surface is hot enough that a drop of water splatters, swipe with a paper towel to remove excess oil and spoon batter on - 1/4 cup at a time. Let cook on first side until bubbles begin to form around the edges - around 3 minutes. You may need to adjust heat up or down to get the pancakes to cook through without scorching the surface or being too pale. When the cakes set through the center, flip them and let them finish cooking on the second side, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes more.

    NOTES : Even when using frozen blueberries, I have always needed 1/3+ cup of milk to loosen the batter up sufficiently after letting it sit.

    I just went there too. It was great what i did was just print them or I also
    Highlighted it and then copy and paste into word.
    It worked for me.

    I don't know what I am doing wrong, but I can't get the recipes to highlight to copy them. I have never had this problem before!

    Thanks for posting. Tried these this morning and we really liked them. I also needed the full 1/3 c milk. Darla
