• Combine the dry ingredients except for the baking soda in a bowl.

• Set aside.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg with the sugar until combined.
• Add the oil and mix until combined.
• Pour this mixture into the buttermilk/baking soda, and mix.
• When the skillet is preheated, toss the butter into the skillet and let it melt.
• Meanwhile, pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and mix in as few strokes as it takes to just make the dough come together.
• Swirl around the skillet to get the butter covering the bottom well.
• Spoon the batter immediately into the pan. Allow the patty to brown well on the first side and then flip and brown the other side. About 5 minutes total time.
• Remove to paper towels to absorb excess fat. Repeat until all the batter is used.

HOT WATER CORNBREAD

FRIED CORNBREAD (SOUTHERN STYLE)

Steps:

• Mix first two ingredients to make a batter --- add more or less water depending on how thick or thin you want your cornbread patties. The best way would be to mix in small amounts of water at a time to get the consistency you want.
• In a skillet or frying pan bring oil up to medium heat and test 1/2 teaspoon drop of batter, You do not want it to fry too fast. I normally cook mine on #6 and then furn down to #5 on my stove. Drop by tablespoons full and pat out with back of spoon to make a pattie. Turn over when bottom is light brown.
• Serve and enjoy this tasty bread!

FRIED DRESSING PATTIES

Steps:

• 1. Shape leftover dressing into patties. If dressing is moist, you won't need to add anything--they should shape right up easily. If they are too dry to hold together, beat in an egg or a little milk.
• 2. Coat the patties in flour. Heat butter or oil in a large skillet and add the patties, one at a time. Cook on one side over medium heat, about five or ten minutes. Turn patties once and cook on other side.
• 3. When golden brown, remove to a paper towel to drain. Serve plain or with leftover gravy.

SOUTHERN HOECAKES (AKA FRIED CORNBREAD) RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

FRIED CORNBREAD (AKA HOE CAKES)

Steps:

• 1. Mix together flour, corn meal, and sugar into a mixing bowl. Add egg, oil and buttermilk. Mix with fork until all ingredients are moistened. Batter should be the consistency of pancake batter, so you may need to add a little more milk.
• 2. Heat oil in heavy skillet (I use cast iron). When oil is hot, add a little less than 1/4 cup of batter to the hot oil. Fry on medium heat for about 2-3 minutes. When golden brown, turn and cook other side until golden. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels. Serve with butter, honey butter or whatever you like.

CORNBREAD PATTIES

Steps:

SOUTHERN FRIED CORNBREAD

Steps:

• In a medium-sized bowl, mix cornmeal, salt, and water together. You'll want the consistency of thick cake batter. If it is too dry, add a little more water.
• In a cast iron skillet, heat bacon drippings and oil until almost smoking. You will know the oil is hot when a few drops of water sizzle when dropped into the skillet.
• Drop 2 tablespoons of cornmeal mixture into the oil and brown until golden crust forms around the edges of the cornbread (about 2 minuteand then turn and brown until cornbread is golden on the outside. Add more oil and/or bacon drippings if the skillet becomes too dry. Remove to a paper towel to drain and serve hot.

HOECAKES (FRIED CORNBREAD)

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon. Add the buttermilk slowly. Mix in the egg, cutting into the yolk with the spoon's edge to help it mix in better. Add the water and fat or oil and stir well. The texture should be like thick soup, so you may need to add more water.
• I like to fry the cornbread cakes in my grandmother's castiron skillet or on a flat iron griddle, but any skillet or griddle will be fine. Heat the skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease it well with the fat of your choice (butter is delicious, but it tends to burn unless you mix it with a little oil). Once the skillet is hot and the fat is sizzling, drop the batter from a 1⁄8-cup (2-tablespoon) measure into the skillet, in batches if necessary.
• Fry the cakes until the edges are bubbling and the centers are set, then flip with a spatula to fry them on the other side until they're done. Like with pancakes, you can't say how long it will take, but the second side always cooks faster than the first. If the cakes seem greasy, drain them on paper towels before serving hot.

LACY CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Mix the cornmeal, water and salt with a wire whisk making sure no lumps remain in the mixture. Set aside for a few minutes.
• Heat a flat griddle or skillet over medium heat.
• When the pan is hot, drizzle with one or two tablespoons of peanut oil tilting the griddle so that the entire surface is coated with oil.
• Ladle the batter by tablespoons onto the hot pan. Do not crowd the pan.
• When the edges begin to brown, turn the cornbread with a metal spatula and cook the second side. The cornbread cooks quickly, so watch to make sure it doesn't burn.
• Remove the cooked cornbread to paper towels to drain. Re-oil the skillet and stir the batter in between each batch of cornbread.

FRIED HOT WATER CORNBREAD CAKES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place the water and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a full boil over high heat.
• Remove the water from the stove and add the cornmeal, bacon drippings or butter, and sugar, if using. Stir until a stiff dough is formed. Let the mixture stand just until it is cool enough to handle, or about 10 to 15 minutes.
• Shape the dough into palm-sized cakes. Set aside.
• Heat a heavy skillet, preferably cast iron , over medium heat. Add enough shortening or bacon drippings to coat the bottom of the pan.
• When the fat is hot, place the cakes in the hot skillet. Fry until lightly browned on the bottom.
• Turn the cakes over and fry until brown. Repeat the process with all the cakes. Serve hot.
• Enjoy!
