Editorial Notes
The ingredient tips, suggestions, variations, facts, questions and answers below are not edits to the original author's recipe. They are not meant to imply any change would improve the recipe.

- For a richer flavor, use buttermilk instead of regular milk.
- For a more savory flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder to the dry ingredients.
- Substitution 1: Use almond flour instead of all-purpose flour. This substitution is beneficial because almond flour is gluten-free and higher in protein and fiber than all-purpose flour. It also has a nutty flavor that pairs well with the corn meal.
- Substitution 2: Use olive oil instead of butter. This substitution is beneficial because olive oil is a healthier alternative to butter, as it is lower in saturated fat and higher in monounsaturated fat. It also has a mild flavor that won't overpower the taste of the corn cakes.
Vegan Version Replace the eggs with flax eggs (1 tablespoon of ground flaxseeds mixed with 3 tablespoons of water) and replace the butter with vegan butter. Use a non-dairy milk like almond milk.
Maple Bacon: Maple Bacon is a dish that pairs perfectly with President Eisenhower Corn Cakes. The combination of sweet and savory makes for a delicious breakfast. The bacon adds a nice crunch to the corn cakes, while the maple syrup adds a nice sweetness.
Scrambled Eggs: Scrambled eggs are a classic breakfast dish that pairs perfectly with the President Eisenhower Corn Cakes and Maple Bacon. The creamy texture of the eggs complements the crunchy texture of the bacon and corn cakes, while the eggs provide a savory flavor that balances out the sweetness of the maple syrup.
