Cornmeal pancakes

This is my go-to pancake recipe.  If I ever make pancakes this is the one I use, but one Saturday morning I decided to get adventurous and try the cornmeal variation.  A tasty change but not going to replace the buttermilk ones.

Orginal Recipe
2 C all purpose flour
2 T sugar
2 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1 large egg
3 T melted butter
2 C buttermilk
1-2 t vegetable oil to grease griddle

Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.  In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter and then the buttermilk. Make a well in the dry ingredients, pour in buttermilk mixture and whisk just until incorporated.  Don't over mix.  Then cook on your griddle.

To feed our family a Saturday morning breakfast I usually double or triple this recipe, but that is because we have 5 breakfast monsters living in this house.


Cornmeal variation
Replace1 C of the all purpose flour with 1 1/2 C fine ground cornmeal and whisk 1/4 t vanilla into the buttermilk mixture.
