Notes
- The batter will be thick but that's okay it's supposed to be.
- Use a combination of butter and olive oil to cook the hoecakes, it will make them super buttery and crispy.
- Don't overcook otherwise the inside will become dry.
- Make sure the skillet isn't too hot otherwise the outside will burn and the inside will remain raw.
- You can make them as small or large as you like.
