Johnny Cake

Johnny cake is a hearty addition to breakfast or brunches and makes a good accompanyment to sausages or can be served along with bacon and eggs.

Johnny Cake

1 1/2 cups cornmeal

2 1/2 cups milk

Mix milk and cornmeal together in a large bowl and set aside.

In another bowl:

2 cups flour

2 tbsp. baking powder

1-2 tsp. salt

2/3 cup white sugar

Sift dry ingredients

Into the cornmeal mixture (first bowl):

2 eggs

2/3 cup Rogers syrup

1/2 cup oil

Add in the dry ingredients and stir until mixed. Bake in a greased 9x13 pan for 30-40 minutes. Drizzle with syrup while still warm.

* You can also add pineapple chunks to Johnny cake.

If you're tired of the same-old, same-old for breakfast, try thick slices of johnny cake split in half and served while still warm with butter and maple syrup drizzled on top. A perfect compliment for bacon or ham. Delicious!
