Old Fashioned Pancakes From Scratch Recipes

OLD FASHIONED PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, measure out the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk together until incorporated.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract and oil. Whisk together with a fork until combined-you want to ensure that the egg is incorporated. Why? We do not want random egg whites in our pancakes.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this will affect the texture of the pancakes.
• Set aside the batter, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
• While the batter rests, heat a griddle or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Grease the pan lightly with butter or cooking spray.
• Dollop the pancakes onto the preheated skillet when ready. I like to use a cookie scoop to measure my pancakes out into 2 tablespoon silver dollar sized ones, but you can use a larger measuring scoop if you'd rather larger pancakes.
• When several bubbles have formed on the surface, flip the pancakes, and cook through. Repeat until all batter has been made into pancakes.
• Make a stack of pancakes, and serve with warm maple syrup, softened butter and your favorite fruits.

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.

Steps:

• Resift flour with sugar, baking powder and 3/4 teaspoon of salt. Combine melted butter, egg and yolk and whisk in milk. Preheat the griddle
• With a few swift strokes fold the wet ingredients into the dry ones. Do not overmix; keep the batter lumpy so they will turn out light. Cook the pancakes on the griddle, using a scant 1/4 cup for each pancake. Turn them over when bubbles form over the entire surface of the pancake and cook for a few minutes on the other side. Serve hot with maple syrup. For dinner, serve hot with a saute of apples and raisins and along with either slices of bacon or topped with cottage or ricotta cheese.

CLASSIC PANCAKES

Steps:

• In medium bowl, beat egg with wire whisk until fluffy. Stir in remaining ingredients just until flour is moistened (batter will be slightly lumpy); do not overmix or pancakes will be tough. For thinner pancakes, stir in additional 1 to 2 tablespoons milk.
• Heat griddle or skillet over medium-high heat (375°F). (To test griddle, sprinkle with a few drops of water. If bubbles jump around, heat is just right.) Brush with vegetable oil if necessary (or spray with cooking spray before heating).
• For each pancake, pour slightly less than 1/4 cup batter onto griddle. Cook 2 to 3 minutes or until bubbly on top and dry around edges. Turn; cook other side until golden brown.

PANCAKES FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Mix flour and baking powder together in a small bowl. Mix milk, egg, and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil together in a large bowl. Stir flour mixture into milk mixture until batter is smooth. Set aside to allow batter to thicken, about 1 minute.
• Heat about 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle, add blueberries, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining oil and batter.

ULTIMATE FLUFFY PANCAKES

Steps:

• Beat egg.
• Stir in butter and milk.
• Combine flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder.
• Stir into egg mixture.
• Lightly grease a griddle.
• Heat griddle and drop about 1/4 cup batter onto griddle.
• Spread lightly with a spoon.
• When bubbles begin to appear around outside edge and break, turn with a spatula and cook on other side.
• (I also lift edge a little with the spatula and peek under it to see how it's doing.) You will need to adjust your heat so they do not cook too fast and burn.
• For me, the temperature usually ends up somewhere between medium and medium-high.

OLD-FASHIONED POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Rinse potatoes in cold water; drain thoroughly. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, eggs, onion, flour, parsley, salt and pepper. , Pour batter by 1/3 cupfuls onto a well-greased hot griddle. Fry in batches 5-6 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. ,

OLD-FASHIONED BUTTERMILK PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat a griddle to medium heat, according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Add buttermilk, eggs, and butter; stir together until well blended but do not stir out all of the small lumps. Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough and rubbery.
• Pour oil on a paper towel and spread over the griddle to grease lightly. Test the griddle with a few drops of water; water should dance across the surface and not instantly steam and evaporate.
• Working in batches, drop 1/4 to 1/3 cupfuls batter for each pancake onto the hot griddle. Cook until the sides start to shine and look stiff, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the other side, about 2 more minutes. Repeat to make remaining pancakes.
