Corn pone ( fried hot water cornbread) image

Took forever to find this recipe. Down here I grew up hearing it called corn pone. There was a restaurant Aunt Fannies cabin that made this and the recipes I found it wasn't the same. . years later a " Yankee" friend " that's hot water cornbread" lol only difference was the name. Great with gumbo or fish. Anything really...
