4 Servings
Ingredients
- 1½ cups blue cornmeal
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1½ cups buttermilk
- ¼ cup canola oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and oil until smooth.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Fold together with a spatula until just combined — don't overmix. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes.
- Heat a griddle or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and grease lightly with cooking spray.
- Scoop about 2 heaping tablespoons of batter per pancake and spread gently into a 3–4 inch circle.
- Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes.
- Flip and cook another 3 minutes until golden and the center feels slightly firm. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Plate and serve!
