Blue Corn Meal Griddle Cakes - Recipe

BLUE CORN MEAL GRIDDLE CAKES

1/2 cup BLUE CORN MEAL
2 tablespoons CORN OIL or MARGARINE
1/2 cup ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
1/4 cup DRY MILK
1 teaspoon BAKING POWDER
1 cup WARM WATER

Combine dry ingredients well. Combine oil and water, add to dry ingredients and beat well. Heat griddle on medium heat. Drop cakes by small spoonfuls onto hot, greased griddle. Turn when underside is brown. Corn meal tends to settle to the bottom, so stir gently between cooking batches. May be necessary to add more oil to griddle between batches.
