Default Corn Pancakes

Tara, I've never tried this with grilled or roasted corn, though I'm sure
that would be an interesting and tasty twist. Growing up my mother
frequently added fresh cut corn kernals to pancake batter. I've always
loved corn pancakes.

Years later I started adding fresh cut corn kernals to my cornmeal waffle
batter... Super delicious!

Contrary to what some people seem to believe, these are definitely
pancakes, not fritters. For those who don't know, corn fritters are not
flat pancake style. The batter is thick enough to form with two large
spoons and slide into deep fat for frying.
