* ground in blender, or 1/4 c Cornmeal Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. Beat the liquid ingredients (incl 2 T of the oil) together and add them to the dry mixture. Stir to mix well, mashing out the lumps with a wooden spoon. Add more liquid if necessary; the batter should pour off the spoon slowly but smoothly. You can use water instead of milk after you've added the first 1 1/2 cups of milk. Brush a hot skillet with oil or butter. The skillet should be well greased. Heat the skillet and cook the pancakes on the 1st side over med-hi heat until the surface bubbles; turn and cook briefly on the 2nd side. Transfer to warm plate. Makes 12 pancakes.
