Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1/3 cup masa
- 1/3 cup corn meal
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup oil
- 2/3 cup jalapenos, canned and chopped
- 1 cup corn, frozen and thawed or canned and drained
Preparation:
Blend dry ingredients in a large bowl. Blend milk, eggs and oil in a small bowl. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and mix with a large spoon until incorporated. Lumps are okay, do not over mix. Fold in the jalapenos and corn.
Heat a large, lightly oiled griddle over medium heat. After griddle is hot, pour the cakes on 1/3 cup at a time. Brown for 1 or 2 minutes on each side. If cakes are browning too fast, turn down the heat a little.
Place hot cakes on a towel lined plate and cover with an additional towel to keep them warm.
Enjoy alone, top with fresh berries, apricots or a fried egg .
