Ingredients
2 cups (247grams)yellow corn flour, In the UK it is sometimes labelled as maize flour.
4teaspoonsbaking powder
2tablespoonssugar
½teaspoonfine sea salt
4teaspoonsvanilla extract
1⅓ cup (320mls)milk of choice
INSTRUCTIONS
To a medium bowl, add the corn flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk them together.
Add the milk and vanilla to the dry ingredients and mix them together well.
Heat a griddle, skillet or frying pan over a medium low heat. Add a drizzle of mildly flavoured oil or some vegan butter and allow to melt/spread around the pan. If you have a good non stick pan/griddle you can cook them oil-free.
Once hot add the batter about ⅓ cup (80 mls) at a time. Allow them to cook undisturbed, until bubbles start forming around the edges and they start to look slightly set around the edges. Don't wait for bubbles to appear all over the top.
Flip gently and cook on the other side until lightly golden. This won't take long. 30 seconds or so. Don't overcook them or they will become dry.
Remove from the pan and serve immediately.
NOTES
Measuring corn flour - Spoon the flour gently into the measuring cup without compacting or shaking it down, then level it with a knife. DO NOT scoop it into the cup because you will end up with drastically more flour than intended.This recipe will not work with all-purpose flour, masa harina, UK cornflour, or cornstarch. You must use yellow corn flour.
