No Fuss Pancakes Recipes

SIMPLE, FLUFFY PANCAKES

Steps:

• Place flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl, whisk to combine.
• Add egg, milk and vanilla. Whisk until lump free - no longer than 30 seconds.
• Heat a non stick skillet - use medium heat if you have a strong stove, medium high if you have a weak one. Add a tiny bit of butter (about 1/2 tsp) and swirl to melt. Use paper towel to mostly wipe the butter off (this is the trick to avoid a dodgy 1st pancake).
• Pour 1/4 cup batter into the middle of the fry pan (I use a slightly heaped ice cream scoop with lever, standard is 1/4 cup).
• Swirl pan lightly to spread or use the ice cream scoop edge to spread into 11cm / 4.5" circle (ruler is a must) (joking!).
• When bubbles rise to the surface (see video), flip and cook the other side until golden.
• Remove and keep warm in a low oven.
• Use more butter every 2 to 3 pancakes - depends how good your non stick coating is.
• Serve with toppings of choice!

NO-FUSS FLOURLESS OAT PANCAKES RECIPE

Steps:

• Either using a food processor or a hand blender, process the oats until they are finely ground, similar to oat flour.
• Place the ground oats, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk until combined.
• In a separate large bowl, mash the bananas until fine. Whisk in eggs and vanilla.
• Add the dry ingredients into wet and mix until combined.
• Finally, add in melted butter and mix again until combined.
• Heat a large skillet or non-stick pan over medium/low heat. Spoon on about 1/2 cup of batter and let cook for 2-3 minutes on each side. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Serve fresh from the pan with fruit, syrup, and even a little Irish butter on top.
• Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the microwave or on a pan again.

FLUFFY PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Combine egg, milk and shortening; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened., Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top of pancakes; cook until the second side is golden brown.

FLUFFY CANADIAN PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine flour and baking powder. Stir in milk and egg yolk until smooth.
• In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the whites into the batter, then quickly fold in remaining whites until no streaks remain.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Cook until pancakes are golden brown on both sides; serve hot.

MILK-FREE FLUFFY PANCAKES

Steps:

• Stir coconut milk and vinegar together in a bowl; set aside until the coconut milk tastes sour, about 5 minutes.
• Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
• Beat egg and melted butter into the coconut milk mixture; pour into the flour mixture and whisk together until no lumps remain in the batter.
• Prepare a large skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat.
• Ladle batter into the skillet 1/4 cup at a time; cook until bubbles appear on the top of the pancake, about 5 minutes. Flip the pancake and continue cooking until the bottom is browned and the center is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more.

NO FUSS NO MESS POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a blender, in the order of the recipe.
• Blend pulsating until well mixed.
• Pour onto a hot griddle (380°) that has been greased (I use margarine). Pour to the size you desire.
• Turn when edges are brown.
• These are great served with sour cream, applesauce, jam, syrup or cheese.

NO-FUSS PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a bowl.
• Add milk to flour mixture and mix just until moistened; a few lump are ok. (Don't over-beat or pancakes will be tough.).
• Heat a nonstick griddle or frying pan over medium high heat/flame until a few drops of water drizzled onto it form beads and bounce around.
• Pour 1/2 tablespoon of oil (I use canola) onto the griddle and heat until hot.
• Pour batter onto the griddle to form circles about 4 inches in diameter. Cook for a minute or 2 on one side. When bubbles appear on the surface, flip over with a spatula. Cook on the other side for another 1 or 2 minutes.
• Variations: Try adding a handful of fresh blueberries, about 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder, chopped peaches, pears, or apples, raisins, walnuts, pecans or carob chips. A dash of cinnamon in the batter is nice, too.
