Best Riverhouse Corn Bread Onion Hoecake Recipes

SOUTHERN CORNMEAL HOECAKES

Steps:

• Mix meal, milk, egg and salt together. Drop by spoonful into hot oil. Brown on one side then turn and fry until golden brown on both sides.

ONION CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Chop the onion and sautee it in the skillet with the butter.
• (It's more butter than you need for the onion, but it will all go into the mix.) In a bowl, fully mix the dry ingredients.
• Separately, beat the eggs with the milk.
• Combine the egg and milk mixture and the sauteed onions and butter with the dry ingredients.
• Pour the mix into the skillet.
• Place the skillet in a 400 degree oven and bake for about 20 minutes.
• Enjoy it with honey.

MISS BROWN'S HOECAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
• Whisk the eggs and buttermilk in a medium bowl until beaten and combined. Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
• Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. Add a splash of water or an extra splash of buttermilk if it feels too thick. Add 1/4 cup of the vegetable oil and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. This is a thick batter.
• Melt equal parts (about 2 tablespoons each) butter and vegetable oil in a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium heat. Working in batches, use an ice cream scoop to add small scoops (about 3 tablespoons each) of the batter to the skillet. Cook the hoecakes until bubbles start to appear in the face-up batter, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove the hoecakes to the wire rack and keep in the oven until they are all finished. Wipe out the skillet in between batches and add more butter and oil before repeating with the remaining batter.
• Serve hot and fresh with butter and maple syrup if desired.
