Notes

  • Don't overmix the batter. It should be lumpy/craggy - not smooth. Why? Because overmixing will make your final product less tender and fluffy. You want it to be light and fluffy.
  • What can you add to this/how to modify?
  • Anything you like!
  • Cooked chorizo, bacon, cheddar cheese, jalapenos, fresh corn kernels - anything!
  • You can switch out the milk for buttermilk, or do a combination of milk and sour cream.
