GRANDMA'S SOUL FOOD PANCAKES (WITH PLANTAINS)
My grandmother is from Mississippi. I call these her 'soul food' pancakes because she grew up at a time when people who had very little made simple meals taste super delicious. Every Sunday before church, she made these pancakes to get us out of bed. They have a crepe like texture but are still pancakes and are delicious.

Steps:
- Mash the plantains in a large bowl with a potato masher until slightly chunky. Add the cornmeal, buttermilk, flour, butter, scallions, onion, ginger and salt and mash and stir with the potato masher until combined but still slightly chunky. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Put a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium-high heat; brush with some of the canola oil. Ladle 1/2 cup of the plantain batter onto the griddle and spread it into a 4 1/2-inch circle. Make as many pancakes as you can, leaving some space between each. Griddle the pancakes until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to the baking sheet to drain any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining canola oil and batter until all the batter is used. Serve hot.

PLANTAIN PANCAKES WITH RUM SAUCE
This is one of my husband's recipes. You can use a banana instead of a plantain but bananas tend to be smaller than plantains so use a very large banana or 2 small bananas. ***The directions have been written by my husband, if you have any questions I will do my best to answer them.
