Jamaican Festival Recipe

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, flaxseeds, and salt.

Step 2

Mix in water and vanilla until fully combined. Knead and form into a dough ball.

Step 3

Separate dough into equal pieces, about 6-12 depending on size. Shape each piece into sausage shape by rolling between the palm of your hands and flatten slightly.

Step 4

Heat oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place dough into the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes on one side, reduce heat and flip the dough on the other side for another 3 minutes. Fry dough until golden brown on all sides.

Step 5

Remove and place on paper towel to absorb excess oil. Serve immediately!
