Charly Edsitty shares a cherished family recipe enjoyed in her family.

Team 12's Charly Edsitty takes some time to share her family's blue corn pancake recipe.

Here's what you need to make your own perfect pancakes:

Ingredients:

2 cups ground blue corn meal (available in specialty stores and online)
1 cup flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tbsp. shortening
2.5 cups milk

Directions:

Mix all dry ingredients together in a bowl and add shortening.

Using your hand, mix the dry ingredients with the shortening until incorporated.

Slowly add the milk and mix until a batter consistency is achieved.

Heat up a skillet on medium-high heat and coat with a non-stick spray.

Scoop about a 1/4 cup of the batter onto the heated skillet and spread into a circular shape.

Cook the pancake on each side -- about 2 to 3 minutes on each side -- until golden brown.

Top with butter, syrup and any fruit of your choice.

Ayoo łikan! (Very delicious!)
