Yummy Treat Tuesday: Cornmeal Pancakes

I'm not a big pancake fan, but these are simply fabulous!  A big hit with kids, too:)

Cornmeal Pancakes

Measure and place in a bowl:

• 1 cup cornmeal
• 1 teaspoon salt
  1-2 tablespoons honey (Can sub with sugar or syrup.)
  

Stir in slowly:

• 1 cup boiling water

Cover these ingredients and let stand for 10 minutes.  (I usually use the plate I'm going to flip the cooked pancakes onto for a cover.) In a large bowl, use a microwave to melt:  

• 2 tablespoons butter

Add:

• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 egg

Beat, then add to the cornmeal mixture.  At this point, I start heating a pan on low.   Mix together:

• 1/2 cup flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder

Stir into the cormeal mixture with a few quick strokes.

  Using a dab of butter, grease the pan.  When it's hot enough to sizzle the butter without burning it (medium-low), pour 4" cakes.  When the bubbles in the batter start to not sink on themselves, flip and cook on the other side.

I top with honey, though you can use syrup if you prefer.
