Makes 4 servings

2 strips bacon 1/3 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
Pinch of cayenne
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg
1 1/4 cups milk (about)
1 tablespoon bacon fat

Fry the bacon crisp, drain (reserving one tablespoon of the fat) and crumble. Mix together the dry ingredients in a bowl. In a small mixing bowl, combine the egg, milk and bacon fat. Stir this mixture slowly into the dry ingredients, mixing well. The batter should be fairly thin. Add more milk if necessary. Mix in the bacon. Cook the pancakes in a lightly oiled non-stick skillet or griddle. Serve with cane syrup.
