Directions

  1. While the water is boiling, combine the cornmeal and salt in a large bowl.
  2. Whisk the boiling water into the cornmeal then let rest for about 10 minutes.
  3. Stir in the oil and honey. The mix should be very thick, just barely pourable.
  4. Heat a couple of tablespoons of oil in a large nonstick cast iron skillet. Once hot, spoon about 1/4 cup of the batter at a time onto the skillet.
  5. Cook until the edges are golden and crisp, then flip and cook until the other side is golden as well. It should take about 2 minutes per side.
  6. Serve warm, with a pat of butter and a side of honey.
