Pancake posting week 2: make your own batter

I make them from scratch :3
My recipe is simple, you put n eggs, n dl of milk and then mix and add flour until the consistency is reasonable. Add a pinch of salt if you want to feel fancy. Takes 10 min.
I call that Omelette, not pancakes though...
I milked eggs for 10min and covered them in flour. Did I do this right?
Did you do n eggs? You need that to achieve linear egg-complexity
What if I buy the genuinely good premium mix?
I have a 6yo who loves to help. Less steps makes more good.
I don't think I have ever even seen pancake mix. I believe I am safe
I still want to watch you making them :3
I throw them in the air to flip them. But I don't think that is that interesting to warrant a watch party
The recipe is stupid, but seriously worth it. I spent the pandemic force feeding my roommates pancakes twice a week until it was perfect.
You can use whatever Buttermilk you have, but combining the thick Bulgarian with the thinner normal tasted best to the 8 of us.
You want as little time as possible between mixing and applying heat. 70% of baking soda's lift is in the first 3 minutes. The double acting baking powder has an additional acid that's heat activated, so there will be additional lift before the pancake sets.
Wet ingredients
· 240 g Bulgarian buttermilk (1 cup) · 240 g buttermilk (1 cup) · 13 g vanilla (1 Tbsp) · 85 g heated honey (¼ cup) {I microwave the glass jar 30 seconds at a time until it's easy to pour} · 60 g apple cider vinegar (¼ cup) · 100 g eggs (2 large eggs)
Dry ingredients
· 240 g flour (2 cups) {protein % doesn't seem to noticeably change anything} · 14 g double acting baking powder (1 Tbsp) · 7 g baking soda (½ Tbsp) · 2.5 g cinnamon (1 tsp) · 2 g allspice (1 tsp) · 2 g cardamom (1 tsp) · 1 g cloves (½ tsp) · 2 g nutmeg (1 tsp)
Method
One year I bought a mix from the supermarket to be lazy and the pancakes came out shite. Not like it’s complicated.
what if i make my own mix in bulk and then use that mix to make my pancakes?
siiiigh I know.
worst case u get the video in July, but ill try to get it out sooner.
My diabetic mother-in-law moved in with us a few years ago. One random weekend, I made pancakes and she came out and asked to see “the box”. I had no idea what she was referring to and had to ask for clarification. It turned out she wanted to see the pancake mix box to determine the carbohydrate content. We were able to figure it out from the ingredients of the recipe.
potato pancakes are awesome and very easy!! definitely do suggest, especially with applesauce.
Gib recipe that beats out Krusteaz buttermilk, cause I want to but I just can’t pull it
I’ve acquired buttermilk powder thinking that was the missing magicks, but my first shot just wasn’t it
I often keep Krusteaz around (habit from years of 3 small kids), but I don't really care for it. It's too sweet. I'd much rather use Bisquick or Jiffy.
I haven't actually gotten around to trying it yet, but Alton Brown made a video recently where he rolled his own pancake mix. It looked good.
I’ll give you the decoy box, it has maybe 2 cups of mix left.
I can't even socialize with that 😔
If I see this shit in my yard at 3am I’m opening fire
So am I....
... From my penis.
Yeah, pissing your pants is a common fear response.
Here, take my upvote now gettout!
Good thing I'm sneaky >:3
Try it with beer instead of milk! it's sooooo good
That photo is nightmare fuel. Source?
Idk, it's a very old picture that I've had for years, but couldn't find the right opportunity to use.
