Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then stir in the milk and melted butter.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The batter should be thick but still scoopable. If it's too thick, add a tablespoon of milk at a time until the desired consistency is achieved.
Step 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until it shimmers but does not smoke.
Step 5
Using a large spoon or a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop portions of the batter onto the skillet, gently flattening them into 3–4 inch patties with the back of the spoon.
Step 6
Cook each patty for 2–3 minutes on one side, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook the other side for another 2–3 minutes.
Step 7
Remove the patties from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite dipping sauce.
