Serves 8

Ingredients

1 cup Elevate Protein Flour
1 cup fine cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon monk fruit sweetener (optional for a touch of sweetness)
1 1/4 cups unsweetened oat milk (or water for a lighter version)
2 tablespoons olive oil (or melted butter)

Method

Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the Elevate Protein Flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and monk fruit sweetener.
Combine Wet Ingredients:
Slowly add oat milk and olive oil to the dry mixture. Stir until just combined to form a thick batter.
Cook the Johnnycakes:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with olive oil or cooking spray. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each Johnnycake and spread slightly.
Flip and Finish:
Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form and the edges set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve Warm:
Enjoy as is, or top with butter, maple syrup, or your favorite savory additions like avocado or eggs.
