Southern Fried Lacy Cornbread is thin and oh so crispy! It's made with only four ingredients and is perfect with vegetables, soups, and stews.

Ingredients
- 1 cup fine ground white cornmeal
- 1 ¼ cups hot water (boiled on the stovetop or your hottest tap water)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- peanut oil
Instructions
- Mix the cornmeal, water and salt with a wire whisk making sure no lumps remain in the mixture. Set aside for a few minutes.
- Heat a flat griddle or skillet over medium heat.
- When the pan is hot, drizzle with one or two tablespoons of peanut oil tilting the griddle so that the entire surface is coated with oil.
- Ladle the batter by tablespoons onto the hot pan. Do not crowd the pan.
- When the edges begin to brown, turn the cornbread with a metal spatula and cook the second side. The cornbread cooks quickly, so watch to make sure it doesn’t burn.
- Remove the cooked cornbread to paper towels to drain. Re-oil the skillet and stir the batter in between each batch of cornbread.
Notes
- For this recipe, you’ll need plain, fine ground white cornmeal. You won't achieve the same texture with any other cornmeal product such as self-rising cornmeal or cornmeal mix (both of which contain flour and leavening agents), or with coarse ground cornmeal, or yellow cornmeal.
- Be sure to use a well-seasoned cast iron griddle or skillet.
