It was fun to try these as sort of a history lesson, but by today's pancake / hotcake standards, they were heavy and a little gritty. Glad I tried it, but this was a one time thing for me.

I made the Johnny Cakes for my history project and everybody got a small bite. I had to warm them up in the microwave but they were still good and most everybody like them. I recommend them!

Is there any way to know which colony the early settlers used this in?

This is a great recipe: white Corn Meal, salt, boiling water, bacon drippings.

Great recipe. I made them for a school project about colonial times, and the class loved them! Didn't look very appetizing, but they tasted great! Don't worry, I credited this site.

Great recipe for Johnny Cakes, corn pone is actually different. Corn Pone is made from gritted cornmeal and warm water mixed to form a dough, then it is baked with hot ashes from a fire ;)
