Corn Pancakes Recipe- American Special

Corn Pancakes are a delicious breakfast or side dish that blend the natural sweetness of corn with a light and fluffy pancake texture. These pancakes use a simple batter combining cornmeal, flour, and eggs, with optional green onions for extra flavor. Cooked until golden on each side, they become crisp-edged yet tender inside. Perfect warm with toppings like sour cream, salsa, or avocado, they’re a fun twist on traditional pancakes that bring both sweet and savory to your table.
