Johnny Cakes / Journey Cakes image

These cakes are found on many street corners in Belize, often deep fried. They are originally believed to be called Journey Cakes as they are suitable for trips, keeping for weeks. This is not the crumbly cornmeal version often found in the southern states. This baked version is from Africa Bites and uses coconut milk. Enjoy!
