Cakes?

When I was small, my father had an older friend we would visit on the weekends. He would make these; what he called, "Corn Fritters" for me. I loved them! They were actually some kind of corn meal/flour, fresh corn pancake things. He made them like Griddle Cakes, and we poured Maple Syrup on them.

I have tried to replicate them, but am having issues. Anyone Have an Old Family recipe for something like this?

Thanks
