Ingredients
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup flour I used all purpose gluten-free flour
- 2 tablespoons organic cane sugar or sweetener of your choice
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground flax seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water (cold)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- oil for frying
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, flaxseeds, and salt.
- Mix in water and vanilla until fully combined. Knead and form into a dough ball.
- Separate dough into equal pieces, about 6-12 depending on size. Shape each piece into sausage shape by rolling between the palm of your hands and flatten slightly.
- Heat oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place dough into the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes on one side, reduce heat and flip the dough on the other side for another 3 minutes. Fry dough until golden brown on all sides.
- Remove and place on paper towel to absorb excess oil. Serve immediately!
