Cornmeal Griddle Cakes #BreadBakers
We are with #BreadBakers today with our Cornmeal Griddle Cakes. These are fun to make and it was Ken’s assignment as it usually is with this group. He is the bread baker, pancake maker in this house. I leave it to him as he is very good at it!! I would like to thank Anshie from Spice Roots for hosting this wonderful event!! I love the theme of griddle cakes!
These griddle cakes are lush, rich, and scrumptious. They have the added goodness from cheddar cheese and green onions. They make a great southern side dish to go with so many dishes. They sop up gravy or sauce and can be topped with many delicious types of meat like pulled pork, BBQ chicken, or crispy bits of fish or brisket. Another name for these is hoecakes.
They should be cooked in hot oil but we also added a bit of butter for flavor. They are crispy on the outside and soft and tender on the inside.

Cornmeal, eggs and cheese! What’s not to love! Your griddlecakes look absolutely delicious and melt in the mouth! I can’t wait to make these at home, I am sure my kids will love their taste!

I love all things made with cornmeal! Add in some cheese, and I may never leave. These look great, Tara (and Ken)!

I love these flavors, Tara!
Wendy, A Day in the Life on the Farm says
My mouth is still watering over the thought of topping these with pulled pork. YUM
Jill says
These look quite delish and very east to adapt to a gluten-free version. Either Robin Hood’s gluten-free mix or the one that Costco sells.
Wendy @ Wholistic Woman says
You had me at corn . . .
Robin @ A Shaggy Dough Story says
I really shouldn’t be looking at these on an empty stomach when I’m still a couple of hours away from home without a kitchen to run to. I want them NOW. So many good things in one little griddle cake… Oh my.
Karen @ Karen's Kitchen Stories says

Stacy says
As soon as I read green onions and cheddar cheese, I knew I was going to LOVE these, Tara! So good!
Tara Noland says
Thanks Stacy, ya the additions were perfect!
Mayuri Patel says
Tara, doesn’t 4 tsp of baking powder, give an after taste ?
Tara Noland says
If it was baking soda you would taste it but baking powder just makes them nice and light.
Mayuri Patel says
Anything with cheese sounds interesting to me. I can imagine having these griddle cakes with some salad on the side.
Tara Noland says
The added cheese and green onions make these griddle cakes so good, thanks Mayuri!
