HOECAKE BREAD RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• In an 8-inch cast iron skillet, melt the bacon fat over medium high heat. Meanwhile, cut the cold butter into the flour. Add only enough buttermilk to the flour to form into a shaggy dough, turn out onto a floured surface, sprinkle a small amount of flour on top and quickly shape into a disc. Turn over, sprinkle additional flour on top and tighten disc, just slightly smaller than the skillet. Use a wide spatula to transfer the dough to the hot skillet. Cover and reduce heat to between medium and medium low. Cover and cook until the bread browns on the bottom, then flip over, pour melted butter on top if desired, cover and cook until browned on the other side. Break off pieces or cut into wedges and serve with pure butter, honey, sorghum or cane syrup, or use your favorite jam, jelly, preserves or fruit butter.

MISS BROWN'S HOECAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
• Whisk the eggs and buttermilk in a medium bowl until beaten and combined. Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
• Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. Add a splash of water or an extra splash of buttermilk if it feels too thick. Add 1/4 cup of the vegetable oil and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. This is a thick batter.
• Melt equal parts (about 2 tablespoons each) butter and vegetable oil in a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium heat. Working in batches, use an ice cream scoop to add small scoops (about 3 tablespoons each) of the batter to the skillet. Cook the hoecakes until bubbles start to appear in the face-up batter, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove the hoecakes to the wire rack and keep in the oven until they are all finished. Wipe out the skillet in between batches and add more butter and oil before repeating with the remaining batter.
• Serve hot and fresh with butter and maple syrup if desired.

HOECAKES

Steps:

• Mix well all ingredients, except for the frying oil.
• Preheat the frying oil in a medium or large skillet over medium heat. I start with about 2 TBS and add more if necessary. I use a cast iron griddle and get it very hot to make a nice crust on the outside of the cakes.
• Drop the batter, by full tablespoons, into the hot skillet. Use about 2 tablespoons of batter per hoecake.
• Fry each hoecake until brown and crisp; turn each hoecake with a spatula, and then brown the other side.
• Keep warm in 200 degree oven with paper towels between cakes. Leftover batter will keep in refrigerator for up to 2 days.

HOE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a well-seasoned cast iron skillet with the shortening, and place it in the oven as it heats.
• Whisk together the flour and milk in a bowl, to make a thick but still runny batter.
• Remove the hot greased skillet from the preheated oven, and quickly sprinkle a pinch of garlic salt over the bottom of the skillet. Immediately pour in the batter, and sprinkle the top with a pinch of garlic salt.
• Return the skillet to the oven, and bake in the preheated oven until the cake has risen and the top is golden brown, about 20 minutes.

HOECAKES

Steps:

• In large bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, beat eggs, buttermilk, water and 1/4 cup oil with whisk. Add to dry ingredients; stir just until combined.
• In cast-iron or other heavy skillet, heat about 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. For each hoecake, pour about 1/4 cup batter into hot skillet. Cook until browned on both sides. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more oil to skillet as needed.
