Johnny Cakes
Ingredients
- Sliced strawberries
- Water
- Sugar
- Vanilla extract
- Krusteaz Sweet Cornbread Mix (or similar)
- Butter
- Milk
- Oil
- 1 egg
Directions
- In a saucepan on the griddle over high heat, combine sliced strawberries, a splash of water, sugar, and vanilla. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces and thickens to your desired consistency. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare the cornbread mix according to the package directions, using milk, oil, and the egg.
- Lightly butter the griddle surface and allow it to heat to low–medium.
- Pour portions of batter onto the griddle to form about six Johnny cakes.
- Cook until the bottoms are set and lightly golden, then carefully flip (they are more delicate than traditional pancakes). Cook until fully done.
- Serve warm, topped with the strawberry mixture.
