Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup cornmeal
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1 cup sweet corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
• Maple syrup, for serving

How to Make Sweet Corn Pancakes

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. In another bowl, mix the milk, eggs, and melted butter until smooth.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Fold in the sweet corn kernels until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
5. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a bit of butter or oil.
6. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
7. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
8. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
9. Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your baking powder is fresh for maximum fluffiness.
• Don’t overmix the batter; it’s okay if a few lumps remain.
• Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning while ensuring pancakes cook through.

Easy Variations

• Add a handful of blueberries or chocolate chips to the batter for a fruity or sweet twist.
• Substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
• Experiment with spices like cinnamon or vanilla extract to enhance the flavor profile.

What to Serve With It

• Fresh fruit, such as sliced bananas or berries
• Whipped cream for a decadent touch
• A side of crispy bacon or sausage
• Greek yogurt for added creaminess
