Cornbread on the road

Somebody posted this for me in another group:

2 cups corn meal
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups boiling water
1 tbsp maple syrup (optional)
fat for frying

Mix corn meal and salt together. Stir in enough boiling water to make a
stiff dough. Add maple syrup, if you have it. Heat enough fat in your pan
to cover bottom by about 1/2 inch. Shape the dough into small, round cakes
and drop into sizzling fat. Cook each side until brown and crispy. Serve
hot.

I cut the recipe in half and it made 4 3" cakes. Very filling - I ate two
and saved the rest for later. Had them with peanut butter for extra
protein. Might be good to add some corn kernels. I used vegetable oil for
the "fat".
