Belize (#21) Johnny Cakes
I love biscuits so I when I stumbled across this recipe I knew I had to make it. Johnny cakes were originially called Journey Cakes because they were a staple for travel and stay good for weeks. In Belize they are a breakfast staple and eaten as a sandwich with ham and cheese, or served warm and drenched in butter and honey. There are just a few simple ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, butter and coconut milk. The dough is mixed and then balls are formed and flattened on a baking sheet, then pricked with a fork and baked for 30 minutes or so.
