Kentucky Griddle Cakes image

I am not really sure why these are called Kentucky griddle cakes. When we lived in KY, I can't ever recall eating them. I got this recipe years ago when we lived in Kansas, actually. These are really good cornmeal pancakes. You may use white cornmeal too, but the yellow gives this a nice color.

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons oil, plus
more oil, for greasing the pan

Steps:

  • Mix together the dry ingredients in one bowl, the wet ingredients in another bowl.
  • Stir the wet into the dry using a wooden spoon, mixing just enough to blend- don't overmix; batter should be slightly lumpy.
  • Heat a griddle,greased lightly with some additional oil or nonstick spray, over medium to medium-high heat until a drop of water sizzles when dropped onto the pan.
  • Stir the batter again briefly (since it will have settled), and drop a scant 1/4 cupful of batter onto the pan for each cake.
  • Cook until bubbles form and burst and the bottom is light brown, adjusting heat if needed to keep from burning bottoms.
  • Flip over and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes, just until browned (if you touch it with your finger, no imprint will remain).
  • NOTE: If batter is too thick, add a little more buttermilk.
  • Serve with warm syrup.

These griddle cakes were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter, fluffier texture.

My kids loved these pancakes! They were so fluffy and soft, and the flavor was just right. I will definitely be making these again for breakfast.

These griddle cakes were easy to make and turned out delicious. I used buttermilk instead of milk, which gave them a slightly tangy flavor that I really enjoyed. I also added a handful of blueberries to the batter, which made them even more special.

I've tried many different griddle cake recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cakes are so moist and flavorful, and they cook evenly every time. I love serving them with fresh fruit and whipped cream.

These pancakes were a hit with my family! They were light and fluffy, with a crispy golden brown exterior. The flavor was perfect, with a hint of sweetness and a touch of maple syrup. I will definitely be making these again!
