Johnny Jalapenos Ride Em Cowboy Corncakes Recipes

Steps:

• BATTER: Mix all batter ingredients well (you should have about 2 cups).
• Heat griddle to medium and grease lightly (or use spray butter). Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto hot griddle to total 8 pancakes (do in batches if necessary).
• Top each equally with bacon, jalapenos, and cheddar. When bubbles begin to appear on the edges of the cakes (about 1-2 minutes and making sure the bottom is thoroughly cooked), Carefully flip them over and cook the other side (about 1-2 minutes). Do not pat down the pancakes!
• Flip cakes topping side up onto serving plates. Top each with the butter, picante, & sour cream. Drizzle lightly with maple syrup, and serve.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar and salt. In a small bowl or measuring cup, use a fork to lightly beat the milk, melted butter and egg. Pour the milk mixture over the flour mixture. Add the corn and jalapeno. Use a fork to stir until just mixed and there are no visible traces of flour.
• Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Sprinkle a few drops of water into the skillet--if they "dance" across it, the skillet is ready. Add a pat of butter and swirl to coat. Drop scant 1/4 cupfuls of batter into the skillet, leaving 1 to 2 inches between each cake. Cook until set around the edges and air bubbles form on top, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook 1 to 2 more minutes. Serve hot.
• Love Your Leftovers: Store remaining griddle cakes in a ziptop bag in the fridge for up to 2 days, or the freezer for up to 1 month. Heat them in a toaster (no need to thaw frozen ones) when ready to eat.

Steps:

• Mix the dry ingredients together in a medium bowl. It will be particularly convenient if you have one of those 2 quart measuring cups with the pour spout.
• Beat the eggs into the milk or buttermilk.
• Mix the milk-egg mixture into the cornmeal mixture. I find that a fork is a better tool than a spoon for this.
• Note -- the batter will be a bit thicker than ordinary pancake batter but should still pour. Different types of cornmeal will make a thicker or thinner batter and it may thicken on standing as you cook -- making it hard to get the centers of the later batches done. Add more milk a little at a time if necessary.
• Heat your griddle medium to medium-high. Butter it lighly and pour out batter to make cakes 3-4 inches across.
• Cook until bubbles appear in the upper surface and the bottom is nicely browned. Turn and cook until the bottom is brown and the cake is cooked through. Reduce heat and/or add more milk to the batter if the centers aren't cooked before the outsides threaten to burn.
• Butter the griddle very lightly between batches --just enough to prevent sticking and encourage browning but not enough to give them a fried texture.
• Serve with butter, jelly, apple butter, or other favorite bread spread.

Steps:

• Lightly grease the inside of an 10" cast iron skillet with a little butter. Place in oven and turn temperature to 450°F.
• Meanwhile, cook beef (and onion if using) in a medium sized skillet. When almost done (drain if necessary), add seasoning mix, stirring to coat. Add beans and corn and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, mix corn muffin mix, milk, and egg until smooth. Add cheddar and jalapeno, mixing to combine. Carefully remove cast iron skillet from oven and spread dough into it, using the back of a wooden spoon (pan will be hot).
• Spread beef and bean mixture over dough, leaving a 1/2" border. Bake uncovered 15 minutes.
• Sprinkle with monterey jack cheese and bake an additional 2 minutes or until cheese is warm and melted. Top with garnishments, slice pie fashion and serve.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients into a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until boiling.
• Reduce temperature to low and simmer 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until liquid is reduced by about half.
• Let cool, stirring occasionally (it will thicken more as it cools) You can serve it warm or transfer to a jar and store in refrigerator. Serve with crackers spread with cream cheese and the candy.
• TO JAR FOR LONG STORAGE OR GIFTS: Carefully pour hot candy/jelly into sterilized 4 or 8 oz jars, leaving a 1/4" headspace. Wipe jar rims, place warm lids and rings atop and tighten hand tight. Process in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes. Remove jars and cool on a wire rack.
