  1 0 I like Alton Brown's recipe. Note: When baking, you should always measure stuff like flour by WEIGHT, and preferably in more accurate metric grams. You'll control the results much better this way. But I'm including cups/teaspoons anyway. For about 10-12 pancakes: Wet stuff: 1 cup buttermilk* - room temp. 1 large egg, room temp. 28 g (2 tbsp) butter - melted, then slightly * You can add 1 tbsp lemon juice to 1 cup milk to get buttermilk. Just let it sit a couple of minutes. Whisk egg into melted butter, then whisk in buttermilk. Dry stuff: 135 g (1 cup) flour 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp baking soda 21 g (1 1/2 tbsp) sugar sift dry ingredients. I like to just whisk it for about a minute. Add wet stuff to dry stuff, and mix ONLY UNTIL IT'S JUST COME TOGETHER. Do not mix smooth. You will have tough pancakes if you do. Let it stand five minutes so that the batter won't be runny, and preheat griddle over medium-low to medium heat while you wait. Butter griddle, wipe away excess with a paper towel and be careful not to burn yourself when you do, then cook your pancakes. I use a disher (the scoop with the release that most people use for ice cream). The only thing about this recipe that's kind of a pain is that you have to plan ahead and set out your buttermilk and egg to warm up. If you try to mix a cold egg into melted butter, it will just cause the butter to form solid pieces, which isn't good for the final mix. However, if pressed for time you can warm up the egg by placing it in a bowl of warm water and you can microwave the milk over low power for two or three minutes. But it's well worth the effort.

  0 0 my grandpa used to make the best pancakes. He put coffee in them, I dont know the measurements. I will check with him and see if I can get a recipe ashley.leigh answered in Food & Drink about 1 year ago | Report 2 comments by Timmytee and ashley.leigh… 0 0 Please do--sounds wonderful! Timmytee commented about 1 year ago | Report 0 0 I emailed Grandpa and this is what I got: "I Bought a bag of pancake mix ( it was called Grandpa's old fashioned Pancake mix). I really liked it and looked at the contents and it contained pancake mix, oatmeal, corn meal and other grains). I experimented with those items and came up with the mix of two parts Krustez buttermilk pancake mix, one part cornmeal, one part oatmeal and one part ten grain mix (actually I use 6 grain, 9 grain, 10 grain or any other mix - I like the Red Mill brand the best). For one serving, I use heaping teaspoons of each part for one person. I just add about 8 teaspoons of my coffee for the liquid for each serving. It comes out with about perfect consistancy for cooking. Makes two small pancakes per person." ashley.leigh commented about 1 year ago | Report Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.

  0 0 There's a New York Times recipe I have at home that is really great—it sounds pretty much like this one, but it doesn't say not to worry about lumps, just to mix until not-lumpy but NOT overmix (which creates exciting tension while mixing!): http://events.nytimes.com/recipes/8796/1993/04/11/Buttermilk-Pancakes/recipe.html Also, buttermilk keeps in the fridge a lot longer than you'd think. Now I want pancakes.

  0 0 Lots of great recipes here, but three things I really like with regard to pancakes: 1) a nice balance of light to substantial. I think pancakes can be too light. I've had them where they were like foam. And we all know they can be too heavy. That's a drag, too. Somewhere in the middle is very nice. 2) I like a bit of vanilla in the batter, and 3) it's gotten pretty damn expensive, but go for real maple syrup if you can or a good fruit syrup if you like. Most of the old stand-bys we grew up with - Aunt Jemima, Log Cabin, Mrs. Butterworth's, and Smuckers (not to mention the bargain brands) - use high fructose corn syrup now. How awful to ruin a wonderful stack of pancakes with that crap. Better to buy some cane sugar and make a thick, simple syrup than to use something with HFCS.

  0 0 I gotta say, these are all makin me hungry! I've been mixing pancake batter for a living for ONE HUNDRED THIRTY YEARS and I still like 'em. Don't mix the batter too much--it should be lumpy ("dime-sized lumps" ). If you can let the batter sit for a bit before using it, so much the better, but if not, it doesn't matter too much. Grill works great at 350F. 2-and-a-half oz. batter ought to cook up into a 4-5 inch pancake. Cook them til thet're dry around the edges, still bubbly in the center. Cook on the second side, but they only need to go about half as long. If you put blueberries in the batter after you drop the cakes on the grill/skillet, just use a few, and space them around. Bananas are great, too. My favorite thing to put in pancakes lately is small chunks of a white chocolate/coconut candy bar. All they really need is butter and a little powdered sugar on top. Heavenly. I'm on vacation this week, and you guys are making me wish I was back at work. Best wishes.

  0 0 Yes!!! Slightly altered from a recipe I found online. It's kind of cool, because you make a dry mix first, which you can give as gifts with the main recipe: Hazelnut Pancake Mix 3 cups nonfat dry milk 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup whole wheat flour 1 cup hazelnut meal (like Bob's Red Mill or Trader Joe's "Just Hazelnut Meal" brand) 2/3 cup baking powder 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon salt In a large bowl, stir all ingredients together until well blended. Store in a resealable plastic bag. Yields about 7 1/2 cups pancake mix, enough for 3 batches of pancakes. Use the mix in the following recipe for pancakes: Hazelnut Pancakes: 2 1/2 cups pancake mix 1 1/4 cups water 1 egg 2 tablespoons vegetable oil In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients, and stir just until moistened. Heat a greased griddle over medium heat. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup batter onto griddle and cook until top of pancake is full of bubbles and underside is golden brown. Turn with a spatula and cook until remaining side is golden brown. Re-grease griddle as necessary. Serve with butter and syrup. nseattlite answered in Food & Drink about 1 year ago | Report Comment on this answer Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.

  0 0 Mark Bittman's light and fluffy pancakes or any recipe in which you separate the egg, beat the white until stiff and fold it in. That step makes pancakes MUCH more fluffy.

  0 0 For a basic homemade pancake: 1 1/4 C Flour, 1 T baking powder, 1 1/4 milk, and one egg work great. Not quite a fluffy as Bisquick, but a fraction of the cost. I usually add some cinnamon for a bit of flavor. They are great reheated in the toaster. jpshakes answered in Food & Drink about 1 year ago | Report Comment on this answer Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.
