Made from stone-ground cornmeal, these pancakes are light and crunchy. Make the pancakes immediately; this batter does not hold.



READER'S COMMENT:
"I thought these were really good. They reminded me a lot of corn bread pancakes. The pancakes are really small, but very filling. I used vanilla yogurt in the sauce and thought it was very delicious. My 19 month old really liked them...
