Hoecake got it's name from southern soldiers and probably northern soldiers as well cooking a little corn bread on their hoe during the civil war. When you are cold and hungry, something simple like this goes a long way to filling your belly. OBN, maybe I will find a gold coin in a bag of cornmeal? Settlers found gold nuggets in a bag of peas one time and traced it down to the land it came from.
I use virgin coconut oil in my pones and buttermilk, but no flour. Tastes better than cake and is healthy eating. The doctors say if it tastes good, spit it out. HH.
