GRANDAD'S PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; make a 'well' in the center of the flour mixture. Pour milk, eggs, and 1 tablespoon oil into the well. Mix until well moistened.
• Place a griddle over medium-high heat; sprinkle a few drops of water onto the griddle. If the droplets bounce, the griddle is ready; add 2 teaspoons oil.
• Spoon batter onto the griddle; cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 3 to 5 more minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

GRANDMA'S GOOD OLD FASHIONED PANCAKES

Steps:

• (Note: It's best to use room temperature eggs and milk, so feel free to let them sit out on the counter awhile before you begin the recipe.)
• 1 - In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
• 2 - In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, and milk just till they are fully blended and slightly bubbly. Don't over-whisk because that toughens up the eggs.
• 3 - Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture. Whisk briefly, just until dry ingredients are absorbed, but with batter remaining a little lumpy. Do not over-mix!!!
• 4 - Let sit for 5-15 min so nice air bubbles can develop. Do not re-stir!!! Treat the batter with as little extra movement as possible. Meanwhile, pre-heat griddle to 350.
• 5 - Spray griddle with cooking spray. Pour batter onto griddle using a 1/4 cup measuring cup or small ladle. Brown on both sides.
• (Freeze extras.)
• Makes 12 large pancakes (6 servings of two each).

GRANDMA'S BASIC PANCAKES

Steps:

OLD-FASHIONED PANCAKES

Steps:

• Place a heat-proof platter into a warm oven (at 200 degrees).
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add in the egg, milk, and 2 tablespoons of the butter. Whisk from the center, slowly incorporating the flour. Rest the batter for 10 minutes.
• Heat a large well-seasoned cast-iron skillet or favorite griddle over medium-high heat. Swirl the remaining tablespoon of butter in the skillet (or use oil to coat the griddle) and immediately pour in 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. When bubbles rise to the surface, flip the pancakes, slightly reduce the heat, and cook until the bottoms are golden and the centers are cooked, about 1 minute. (Rarely does the first pancake work because it takes a bit of time to get in the groove with the heat, fat, and batter.)
• As the pancakes come out of the skillet, place them on the warm platter in the oven until ready to serve. Serve a stack of 3 pancakes, topped with more butter and the maple syrup.

GRANDMA'S "WESTERN STYLE PANCAKES"... AND/OR WAFFLES!

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl, beat eggs and add wet ingredients *and sugar*. (If you add sugar to the dry ingredients though, it's still good -- for some reason it seems better if it's added to the wet ones, though!).
• Add wet ingredients to the dry, and mix well (by hand).
• Pour into your waffle maker and follow the waffle maker directions, or pour approximately 1/4 cup onto a hot griddle (I use an electric griddle at approximately 350 degrees).
• When the top of the pancakes start to bubble and the bubbles start to pop, they are ready to flip. Flip the pancakes and cook until the other side has cooked and the pancakes are golden brown.
• Serve with whipped cream and strawberries or with butter and maple syrup --
• Enjoy! (Mmmmm!).
