Provided by Ina Garten

Time 45m

Yield 20 to 22 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup fine yellow cornmeal, such as Quaker
1/2 cup stone-ground cornmeal, such as Bob's Red Mill
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
Kosher salt
1 3/4 cups buttermilk, shaken
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted
2 extra-large eggs
1/2 teaspoon Sriracha
3 cups fresh corn kernels (4 ears) (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives, plus extra for serving
1 1/2 tablespoons seeded, minced jalapeno pepper
8 tablespoons (1 stick) clarified butter, for frying (see Cook's note)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the fine and stone-ground cornmeals, the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and 1 tablespoon salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and Sriracha. Stir in the corn, chives, and jalapeno pepper and mix into the dry ingredients with a rubber spatula until moistened. Don't overmix!
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of clarified butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat until it sizzles. Drop 1/4-cup measures of batter into the pan without crowding them. Press each pancake very lightly with a small metal spatula. Cook for 2 minutes, turn, and cook for 1 1/2 minutes, until both sides are browned and the center of the pancake is firm. Place the pancakes on the prepared sheet pans and keep them warm in the oven while you cook the rest of the batter. Continue making the pancakes, adding more clarified butter to the pan, as needed. Sprinkle with salt and serve warm with a sprinkling of minced chives.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 35m

Yield 4 (makes about 16 pancakes)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 large eggs, separated and at room temperature
1 1/2 cups buttermilk, at room temperature
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the skillet
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Blackberries, for serving
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda and nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk together the egg yolks, buttermilk, melted butter and vanilla in a medium bowl. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture until just combined to make a thick batter.
  • In another bowl, whip the egg whites until they hold soft peaks. Use a rubber spatula to fold the whites into the batter just until no white streaks remain.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush lightly with butter. Working in batches, drop about 1/4 cup batter per pancake into the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the tops of the pancakes and the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until the pancakes are cooked through, about 1 minute more. Transfer the cooked pancakes to the oven to keep warm and continue to make more pancakes, brushing the skillet with butter as needed, until all the batter has been used. Serve the pancakes with blackberries and maple syrup.

DELICIOUS CORN PANCAKES



Delicious Corn Pancakes image

My daughter's teacher called me at 5:00 on a Sunday, and asked if I could make these for their party Tuesday morning. *eyeroll* Of course I said yes. This is the recipe she gave me. It made approximately 35 cakes. The batter did not smell delicious, but the cakes are surprisingly tasty with butter and syrup. They would also be good with jam, or wrapped around a piece of sausage. The kids at school are supposed to eat these plain. I have a feeling they would rather have had Laura Bush's Cowboy Cookies! (they are wonderful!)

LEFTOVER GRILLED CORN PANCAKES



Leftover Grilled Corn Pancakes image

(All measurements approximate)

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     quick, side dish

Time 30m

Yield Enough for 4 to 6 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cups corn kernels
1 minced fresh chile (jalapeno, Thai, serrano, or jabanero), or to taste
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1/2 cup basil leaves
1 teaspoon or more garlic
The juice of a lime
1 egg
Neutral oil, like grape seed or corn, as needed

Steps:

  • Combine, in a big bowl, the cornmeal, flour, salt, and pepper.
  • Throw half the corn into a food processor, with the chile, cilantro, basil, garlic, lime juice, and egg. (You can reserve and hand-chop some of the herbs if you want prettier, green-flecked pancakes. I'm too lazy.) More-or less puree; it need not be perfectly smooth, but you want to release some of the starch from those kernels.
  • Stir the pureed mixture and remaining corn into the dry mixture. Heat about 1/4-inch of oil in a skillet and make big pancakes, turning carefully, once. Serve hot, with - if you like - lime wedges and minced chiles.
