Grandmas Light And Fluffy Pancakes Recipes

GRANDMA'S LIGHT AND FLUFFY PANCAKES

Steps:

• 1. In a mixing bowl, beat eggs on high speed 5 minutes or until thick and lemon colored. Stir in remaining ingredients (use a wooden spoon or spatula, not a mixer).
• 2. Pour batter from 1/4 cup measuring cup onto a medium-hot, lightly greased griddle. Bake until puffed and bubbles begin to break. Turn and bake other side until golden brown. Makes 12 to 14 pancakes.
• 3. Serve hot with your favorite kinds of syrup and/or toppings. You may also stir in blueberries, chocolate chips or nuts to the batter before cooking.

AMERICAN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix 200g self-raising flour, 1 ½ tsp baking powder, 1 tbsp golden caster sugar and a pinch of salt together in a large bowl.
• Create a well in the centre with the back of your spoon then add 3 large eggs, 25g melted butter and 200ml milk.
• Whisk together either with a balloon whisk or electric hand beaters until smooth then pour into a jug.
• Heat a small knob of butter and 1 tsp of oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. When the butter looks frothy, pour in rounds of the batter, approximately 8cm wide. Make sure you don't put the pancakes too close together as they will spread during cooking. Cook the pancakes on one side for about 1-2 mins or until lots of tiny bubbles start to appear and pop on the surface. Flip the pancakes over and cook for a further minute on the other side. Repeat until all the batter is used up.
• Serve your pancakes stacked up on a plate with a drizzle of maple syrup and any of your favourite toppings.

FLUFFY PANCAKES

Steps:

• If serving with pancetta, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line a baking tray with baking parchment and lay on the pancetta in a single layer. Put another piece of parchment on top, followed by a second baking tray, and bake for 12-15 mins until crisp.
• To make the pancakes, get a little helper to weigh out and tip the flour, baking powder and sugar into a large bowl with a small pinch of salt. Crack in the eggs and whisk until smooth. Add the maple syrup and milk while whisking.
• Heat a splash of oil and a small knob of butter in a non-stick frying pan until sizzling. Add spoonfuls of batter to make pancakes the size you like, we made 20cm pancakes for a serving size of one per person, or if you are very hungry, two per person. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side. Eat straight away or keep warm in a low oven while you cook another batch. Serve pancakes with pancetta or blueberries, drizzled with extra maple syrup.

GRANDMA'S BASIC PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients together. Beat egg into milk and add to dry ingredients. Melt then cool the butter so you are not adding to your pancake mixture hot! Finish batter by stirring in vanilla.
• Cook on a HOT griddle (around 400 degrees).
• Enjoy!
