MAMA JO’S CORNMEAL PANCAKES / BOTH Gluten-FREE & All-Purpose Flour Recipes

Greg Schroeder look away... This breakfast item is indeed listed under DINNER and BREAKFAST.

Breakfast for dinner will never be on Greg's "YES!" list, but it is on our's!!!  Especially this one.

This southern recipe was handed over to my mother years and years ago when I was a little girl.  She was taking oil painting lessons from Tom.  I never met him; and I never knew his last name (I still don't!) but this was originally his recipe and called "Tom's Southern Pancakes".

The original recipe was a little too ambiguous on the amounts and I have had to converted it in recent years to a Gluten-FREE version... and then as a waffle version (MAKE  IT  WITH  BACON  PIECES  IN  IT!!!)...

Sssooooooo...  the following is the Mama Jo version(s) of the Tom's Southern Pancakes.

And if your name is NOT Greg Schroeder PLEASE enjoy this for dinner OR breakfast.  I promise you'll love them as much as we do... day or night.   :0)
