  • 1/3 c cornmeal

Sweet Corn and Cherry Pancakes Directions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla. Add the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt, and stir until smooth. The batter should be thick, but if it’s too thick to stir easily, thin with a little buttermilk. Fold the corn kernels into the batter.
  2. Heat  a lightly-oiled skillet over medium heat. Spoon some batter into the hot pan, then top each pancake with a handful of cherry halves. When bubbles form, flip the pancakes, and cook the other side until lightly golden.
  3. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or creme fraiche.
