Here is how you make Corn and Amaranth Griddlecakes:

In a large bowl, sift the amaranth flour, GF all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 3/4 tsp. salt. Whisk in the cornmeal and pine nuts.Melt 2-1/2 Tbs. of the butter. In a medium bowl, whisk the milk, egg, and melted butter. Stir in the chilis.Melt the remaining 1/2 Tbs. butter in a 10-inch nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the corn kernels, scallions, jalape?o, and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring, until the corn shows a few light-brown spots, about 5 minutes. Stir the corn mixture into the wet ingredients. (You can prepare the griddlecakes to this point up to 4 hours ahead.)When ready to cook the cakes, combine the wet and dry ingredients, being careful not to over mix. Heat about 2 tsp. of olive oil in a large nonstick pan or on a griddle over medium-high heat. Drop 1/4 cup of the batter at a time onto the hot pan and gently spread with the tip of a spoon to make 3-inch cakes. Cook the griddlecakes until tiny air bubbles begin to pop through the tops, 3 to 4 minutes; then flip them and cook until deep golden-brown and crisp on the bottom, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Repeat until all of the batter is cooked.Serving Size: Makes about 10 cakes, 2 cakes per servingNumber of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SAWILDE.
