Time 25m

Yield 20 4 inch cakes, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup buttermilk
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup canned creamed corn
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups stone-ground yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup corn kernel, thawed if frozen
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
softened butter and honey, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°. In a blender, combine the buttermilk, heavy cream, creamed corn, whole eggs, egg yolks and 2 tablespoons of the oil and puree.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the cornmeal with the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Slowly stir in the wet ingredients and fold in the scallions, corn kernels and jalapeño. Do not overmix; there should be a few lumps.
  • Heat a large cast iron griddle or skillet. Add 1/2 tablespoon of the vegetable oil until shimmering. Spoon three 1/3 cup portions of the batter into the skillet and cook over moderately high heat until starting to brown around the edges, about 1 minute.

Transfer them to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining oil, batter and butter. Serve the corn cakes hot, with butter and honey.

CORNCAKES ON THE GRIDDLE



Corncakes on the Griddle image

This early-American dish is wonderfully simple and absolutely delicious. I learned to make it while working in a living history museum. Back when ovens were rare and most cooking was done directly over the fire bread came almost exclusively from professional bakers located in towns and cities. But women at home made a wide variety of griddle cakes as staple foods. Try a little edible history today. They go well with any meal where you might serve cornbread. Tip -- they are particularly handy when camping or even when grilling out because you can make them on your gas grill's side burner while tending to the steaks, burgers, or brats. Note -- In light of a few of the early reviews I would like to emphasize that these are not pancakes and will not have a fluffy, pancake texture. They are the hearty staple food of pioneer hunters, trappers, and farmers and are as different from a pancake as a black, peasant rye bread is different from Wonder bread. :)

Time 30m

Yield 20-30 cakes depending on size

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups cornmeal
1 cup unbleached white flour or 1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)
2 eggs
2 1/2-3 cups milk
butter

Steps:

  • Mix the dry ingredients together in a medium bowl. It will be particularly convenient if you have one of those 2 quart measuring cups with the pour spout.
  • Beat the eggs into the milk or buttermilk.
  • Mix the milk-egg mixture into the cornmeal mixture. I find that a fork is a better tool than a spoon for this.
  • Note -- the batter will be a bit thicker than ordinary pancake batter but should still pour. Different types of cornmeal will make a thicker or thinner batter and it may thicken on standing as you cook -- making it hard to get the centers of the later batches done. Add more milk a little at a time if necessary.
  • Heat your griddle medium to medium-high. Butter it lighly and pour out batter to make cakes 3-4 inches across.
  • Cook until bubbles appear in the upper surface and the bottom is nicely browned. Turn and cook until the bottom is brown and the cake is cooked through. Reduce heat and/or add more milk to the batter if the centers aren't cooked before the outsides threaten to burn.
  • Butter the griddle very lightly between batches --just enough to prevent sticking and encourage browning but not enough to give them a fried texture.
  • Serve with butter, jelly, apple butter, or other favorite bread spread.

RAISED GRIDDLE CAKES



Raised Griddle Cakes image

This is a very old-fashioned version of cornmeal pancakes which rise overnight. It came to our family via my great grandmother and dates back to the mid 1870s. The cornmeal gives these pancakes a tiny hint of fried mush, a splendid treat that exceeds my patience to make.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup white cornmeal
2 cups boiling water
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
2 teaspoons yeast
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon baking powder

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, stir together the cornmeal and boiling water. Let soak for about 15 minutes. While still warm but not hot, stir in the flour, sugar, milk and yeast. Cover, and let rise overnight in the refrigerator.
  • In the morning, mix in the eggs, baking powder and salt. If the batter seems too thin, add more cornmeal to thicken it up. If desired, set aside a cupful of batter for the next morning's batch of griddle cakes (see Cook's Note).
  • Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium heat. Spoon pancakes onto the hot griddle, and cook until browned on each side. Serve at once with butter and syrup.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh corn. If using frozen corn, thaw it completely before using.
  • To make the griddle cakes ahead of time, prepare the batter and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. When ready to cook, bring the batter to room temperature before proceeding.
  • If the batter is too thick, add a little milk or water until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Be careful not to overcook the griddle cakes, as they will become dry and tough.
  • Serve the griddle cakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fruit.

Corn and jalapeño griddle cakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give these griddle cakes a try!
