Honey Tips

How Honey is Made

To make honey, bees drop the collected nectar into the honeycomb and then evaporate it by fanning their wings.

Directions

Heat oven to 250°.
In a large bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, baking soda and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk, honey, oil and egg yolk. Stir into cornmeal mixture.
Beat egg white in a small bowl until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into batter. Stir in corn kernels.
Heat a large non-stick skillet brushed with oil over a medium heat. Once the pan is hot, pour 1/4 cup batter into skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the top of each pancake. Flip and cook until bottoms are golden brown. Keep warm in oven while you finish preparing remaining pancakes.
To serve, drizzle with warmed honey.
