I hate sugar in my pancakes. My recipe is the same for 35 years … 2 1/2 cups flour, 3 tsps. baking powder, salt, 1 egg and milk. If I put sugar in my pancakes my family would mutiny.
@@beckypage886 You gotta get the sweet from real 100% maple syrup. I think sugar in the cakes would be weird, unless it had something to do with browning them, and I don't see how.
Hey john, no sugar for me (a dash of vanilla.) I also separate my eggs, whipping the whites into peaks than fold them into batter. Also, I cook them on bacon grease, much more flavorful.
Food Wishes never use veg. Oils, use natural butter brother
Yo chef John, can I combine my dry ingredients far in advance?
This is the way my grandmother made pancakes. She died when I was 28, I'm 74 now and can still see them and taste them in my mind. She was an amazing cook, miss you grandma.
Make night before and put in refrigerator.
Same. My grandma made pancakes like these either mapleine. Miss you Grandma
It’s actually a standard version of pancakes.
I remember this from my mom too I’m 54
That’s sweet that you remember her like that.
Did those this morning:
1. Best pancakes I've ever had
2. My daughter declared me best dad in the world
The prep time / cred ratio is unbeatable
I think I'll be doing those once a week until I can no longer lift a pan
Maybe your daughter can hold the pan for you 😂
i'll be doing these every morning until i'm too dead to hold a pan in a year

Great pancakes. 🥞
Mmmm...dad cooking. When she forgets how great you are when making pancakes .. switch to jelly filled sugar dusted crepes. That's what my dad did....when mom wasn't around.....and pancakes didn't provide the same god-worship response they used to.
0:09 - you missed an obvious pun there, John.
"You're *batter* than that"
Da-dum-tsch!
Yeah, great observation!
And 2:13 - "Round the outside", round the outside
Its a puncake
Well played, sir 🧐
Terrible joke... you’re going to get panned!
So we are staying at home in the beautiful Pacific northwest and just made these for the 1st time , my husband thanks you, my son thanks you, and I Thank you!
Dad grew up on s.Dakota farm during depression. A fond memory is remembering when dad showed me how to make and tend pancakes.
Going to have some pancakes this morning.
Thanks.
☺
A little 1/2 to1 tsp of vanilla extract in the batter is way good, it really bumps up the flavor, yum!
pancakes are awesome with peanutbutter on them :) yum yum!!!!!
chocolate chips in the batter!!!!
***** cinnamon don't forget the cinnamon
***** yep 1/2 teaspoon of powdered cinnamon
***** do you have a food processor, a Grinder you know those mini blenders that are included in blenders or a Mortar and pestle and Just Grind that Cinnamon stick. No problem at all
it is 1:00 in the morning, i am so hungry from watching this...
Lol
+tao wu made me hungry too. :-)
Tony Samson that person does. what causes you to care what that person said? It doesn't matter to you so why say anything just watch the video and move on. people need to realize we have two ears and one mouth so listen to the video and keep your mouth shut.
10 fingers > 2 ears though =/ most of us don't type with our mouths, I'm such a smartass today.
Its 1:00 for me too im finna whip some up
This recipe is so good!!! Just made them and they turned out amazing 🙌🏻 I added just 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract too I couldn’t help myself 🤣
My friend and I made this for state cooking contest (scc) and we moved on to nationals! They were great!!
My mother used to make pancakes like these. Your video made me tear up thinking of the good old days..Thanks
People NEVER EVER use the spatula to flatten your pancakes.
Dear chef John, I made these and they were amazing. I did tweak them tho no melted butter into batter because of butter and maple syrup on top, and I substituted milk for buttermilk and added vanilla to the batter. Best pancakes I’ve ever made. Thank you for the foundation. I love your channel.!
My grandma's pancakes always looked like this and we're delicious but I could never figure out how she did it. 😍
This way is the best cus I love like the Part the kind of burns
@@andyperez4724 omg yes
God bless you so so much Jesus loves you so so much and died for your sins so we can live forever with Him in heaven, repent and turn to Jesus, He loves you so that's why He died for you 💕
I apologize for too much information but, I’m a Grandma myself and I know some cheats.... In a Hurry? After you’ve made this recipe once or twice and are familiar with the desired consistency, try this... Take your pancake mix and mix according to directions... Then thin it down with milk until you achieve this consistency. Then melt about 3 TBSP of butter or bacon grease and dump that in your bowl along with 1 EGG ( beating the egg a bit before adding it helps) . Mix gently until combined, don’t want to develop the gluten. For the grand finale, fry in bacon grease for that crispy donut flavored edge. Or vege oil. ( butter is yummy but it burns too easily). While we want to avoid fats, a bit more oil in the pan (just a scant tsp);will give you that, Grandma made this just for you, crispy edge.

I just made these for dinner and they turned out amazing. The most perfect pancakes I've ever made and I've made a lot of pancakes as a mom of five.
I have been making this recipe and others for like 4 years now, and all I can say is.. I LOVE CHEF JOHN! Awesomeness
Me too. I've tried several other recipes on UA-cam and this is the best.
Love your show, my wife and i both retired early so we had to escape california for south east Oklahoma, the two years has proven to be the right move for us, HOWEVER, food here is mostly fired even the fancy restaurants lol, so i find myself on line learning how to cook the foods we miss the most, your pancakes hit the spot this morning and your recipe along with countless others of yours has made it into my cook book. Thank you for everything.. JD
Nothing says “”I really don’t love you that much like serving food on ice cold plates.”... words to live by. They won’t say it, but they’ll know.
This is my new favorite video, Chef John.
My Dad liked a quick smear of peanut butter before the syrup...yum! He was from Texas!!
Adding Vanilla and almond flavoring to the mixture when whisking makes it have an wonderful flavor. 😘
Yes ! Vanilla and cinnamon !!
I approve this comment 😄💯
This guy is raw! What i mean by that is he says what he wants to say and doesn't care what anybody would think of him! Thats always good to have!! Subscribed
Just a couple quick tips, if you wipe the excess oil or butter out of the pan with a paper towel you leave enough behind that the pancakes don't stick, AND you get a more even golden browning instead of the patchy brown and white. Not only does it look better, it leaves a more uniform crust on the exterior of your fluffy breakfast.
Also, don't be afraid to leave a few little lumps in your batter! Over mixing thins the batter and it has a more difficult time rising in the hot pan. A few lumps per pancake = fluffier pancakes and don't worry - they won't be floury, the lumps cook out perfectly.
Who wants to come over for breakfast?
Nobody yah freak
The patchy brown is what makes them look like old fashioned. Just like my mother made. Everybody talks about fluffy pancakes but they’re too doughy in the middle. I guess people have different taste. This is a southern pancake.
Was thinking the same thing. All these recipes I see on here seem to slightly overcook their pancakes. Slightly lower heat. Also, separating the whites and yolks, then beating the whites, and adding just before cooking will give you a much fluffier and lighter pancake. Everyone likes their own brand....
I made some recently and can confirm that over-mixing the batter thins it out and makes a dense, rubbery pancake. Definitely want a somewhat lumpy batter on the thicker, dryer side.
This was my great-grandfather's recipe, which I learned from my mother. Classic indeed. Great Granddad called them "dough gods", which I do too, because that's what they are.
Made these this morning for breakfast with the help of my 4 yo and they were such a hit! I added some vanilla to mine; they were delicious and so fluffy! Adding this recipe to the rotation for sure. Thanks, Chef 😊
Pancakes from scratch has never been practiced in my family. My mother has always "preferred" to make pancakes from a box. Now that I am older, I am able to make pancakes from scratch, I've been trying recipes online, giving every kind of "old fashioned pancake" recipe a try, but none of them have turned out too well for me. This one takes the (pan) cake! Letting it sit for 5 minutes before cooking it seems to be what I've been missing all along. Glad I found this video, I make tasty pancakes from scratch now - even my mother likes it better than her usual "box" mix. Thank you!
I make these all the time; I made 'em this morning. Gave it a lil twist and substituted *peanut butter* for plain 'ol butter.
Delish!
Thanks Chef!
Just made these and they are SO good! Tastes just like diner pancakes. Thank you Chef John!
Made these tonight (Shrove Tuesday) and they are one of the best pancakes I have made. I normally just do the traditional British style but thought I would try something different and we all loved them. Now I just have to work out how to reheat the left over pancakes for tomorrows lunch as I tripled the recipe :)
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
Israel Uribe
And two teaspoons of cinnamon sifted in with the dry ingredients if one should feel so inclined.
And for a holiday edition, maybe even a half teaspoon of allspice ... or nutmeg.
...Or alternatively, one could stir the cinnamon, and/or the allspice, and/or the nutmeg into some honey and pour that over the pancakes in place of the maple syrup.
...Or, one could simply sprinkle one, two, or even all of those three spices on top just before taking your first bite.
Thanks GOD BLESS 🙏
Thank you so much for the recipe I making now GOD BLESS 🙏
I add a tsp of vanilla extract
Tom's Tinkering and Adventures
YES! I forgot about the vanilla! Vanilla is Absolutely indispensable!
since I found this recipe, I have NO reason to go back to mixes. I love these pancakes.
Pancakes for dinner? I'm on it.
Funeral Giggle damn right. It is called brenner👍😞 = breakfast for dinner
Breakfast for dinner often tastes so much better since our taste buds have had all day to fully awaken. No sense in eating great food you only half taste.
Breakfast for dinner is always wonderful.
Pancakes for dinner is a must!! If I eat them for breakfast it's kind of too heavy on the gut and gives me a stomach ache.
Cool! I found this (almost) exact recipe when my children were young in an old recipe book, around 20 years ago...the only difference was oil instead of butter, and the measurements are a bit different. They really are the best :)
The nostalgia I get watching this now. I (German born and raised) Made this for my husband(American born and raised) when he lived in Germany 10 years ago. Ver possible that this was partially why he married me even though he said he never wanted to marry again. I think it made his day then and I can’t wait to make them again now. Good old chef John old fashioned pancakes. :-) ❤
Wow! You were not kidding when you said these are the best! They absolutely are the best! It puffs up beautifully! And your blueberry pancake technique was very effective as well! My niece loved it!
So I was watching this on my phone, slightly over bedtime, and when he made a close-up on the fork arround 3:15, I opened my mouth ... and realised soon after that nothing was happening... I went to sleep disapointed.
I could give you something to open your mouth for...
Kevin Walter Don't push yourself. Your mom's teeth marks have to heal first.
2edgy4me... you win.
hmmm ur not the target audience. Good people only. Love you guys BBQ PIT BOYS
Heat Seeker hope you made these pancakes
This is virtually identical to my late mother's recipe - wonderful recipe and it evokes great memories! She'd be 102 if she was still alive. I love your channel - thank you.
Yes it brings back memories. My mom would be 97 now. She used to heat the bottle of maple syrup (just a bit), in a pan of water on stove. It was soooo good!
Amazing! First time in my life that I tried real classic American pancakes, let alone made them myself. I am Swiss and we usually just mix milk, flower and egg..no baking powder and butter and they stay flat and kind of dense. So thanks a lot chef John, they taste so delicious! This will change my weekend breakfast culture. I was addicted to maple sirup before, but now I finally have the perfect match for it!
I just made these and they were really great. They were rich in flavor but still airy. Highly recommend!
The best pancakes. Ive been searching through recipes, restaurants, to find that Childhood TASTE... Found It!!! Thank you.
P.S add extra tablespoon of milk
Chef John, this is one of my favorite channels on UA-cam, and you're awesome. Keep on keeping on. Great stuff. I've probably watched hundreds of your videos now.
I've not been able to make good pancakes ever. This video and recipe did the trick! I made these for the residents where I work. They loved them. Thank Chef Jon!
I can’t believe how perfect these were. Chef John you did it againnnn
Chef john is soothing gem in these weird times.
These pancakes are AMAZING! We had some hulled buckwheat, and were planning to make some kasha. We stumbled on this recipe instead, and we’re SOOO glad we did. We milled the buckwheat into flour, and followed this recipe exactly. Thank you Chef John!
After trying endless pancake recipies this is the first one that works in every aspect: amazing taste, super fast, very easy!!! Thanks a lot!
I just made these pancakes right now. They are he best pancakes I’ve ever made myself thank you for your help and all you do, good sir!
I made these yesterday and I must say those babies where DAMN GOOD!! I recommend you guys try this recipe. It's delicious. You'll never go back to the box stuff again......unless your too lazy to make em lol
But how much cayenne do i need?
All of it.
Are you mad?
BaltazarSantiaqo
I'm a little heated.
Well then...
BaltazarSantiaqo While cayenne is excellent for heat, it is not good for flavor - I added too much cayenne to my beef jerky that I tried to make. It was almost hot enough but the cayenne flavor was all I could taste. I later learned that if I do that again, I'm to use extract of cayenne since it provides all the heat with none of the flavor...which should allow me to actually taste the beef next time. :D
You Rock chef John! I made these today and they are fool proof! Thank you!
I love when they cook like that brings me back to when my father made me pancakes for breakfast he basically had the exact same recipe. Thanks!
I love your recipe's, but I must admit I LOVE your voice more. You are always so cheerful and confidant, I love learning from you. I do already know how to make 80% of the recipes, but I love you explaining how truly delicious they are. And first time cooks will learn so much from you! Thank you for all your time and effort you put into your videos! Question, do you have a recipe for, I may spell this wronge. Moussaka ? A Greek version of Lasagna. It's made with cream, macaroni pasta, nutmeg. I love it, but can't find a recipe. Thank you in advance and consideration. Sincerely Michele Eckert Clovis, Ca
hello my friend.i'm from greece..this is for you..
GREEK MOUSSAKA
INGREDIENTS (8-10 servings)
4 large eggplants
1 kg of lamb minced meat finely chopped
1 small onion thinly chopped
2 cloves gillyflower
1 tablespoon of black raisins (optional)
1 clove cinnamon
½ tablespoon grated orange peel
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 ½ cup olive oil for frying
1 teaspoon salt
For the topping (option A)
2 tablespoons butter
3 - 4 tablespoons flour
2 cups fresh milk
2 egg yolks
2 tablespoons grated cheese
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
For the topping (option B)
½ kg non sour yoghurt
3 well beaten eggs
1 tablespoon flour
Salt
Pepper
Nutmeg (optional)
METHOD
Cut the eggplants into slices and put them in salted water for 1 hour approximately. Remove eggplants from water and squeeze them so they drain the excess water.
Heat olive oil in a deep frying pan with heavy bottom and fry the eggplants until soften without getting brown. Arrange them on a kitchen towel paper to absorb the excess olive oil.
In a clean frying pan heat olive oil and sizzle the onion until it golden browns without getting burned. Add minced meat, stir constantly, add all spices, grated orange peel and raisins- provided that you use them- along with a bit of salt. Cook 4 - 5 minutes until all fluids are absorbed.
Arrange eggplant slices on a medium size baking dish, sprinkle minced meat and continue with another layer of eggplants.
Prepare béchamel sauce as follows: In a small saucepan melt butter, remove from the heat and add flour, stirring constantly with a wooden ladle till the mixture thickens. When the mush cools, add the beaten egg yolks. Add cold milk and place the saucepan in the heat, in low temperature, stirring constantly till it becomes a thick and homogeneous sauce. Sprinkle cheese and add a touch of salt and nutmeg and spoon the sauce over all.
Bake for 25-30 minutes in a preheated 180 degrees oven until the sauce golden browns. Served warm.
tzourasss Thank you, Thank you! I just saw your post. I'm excited to make it! That was really nice of u to
Write it all dow! ; D
I agree with you regarding this man's voice... I hope his character is just as nice :) very pleasant...
He would have to be. A person can fake being genuine, but he isnt. You can tell by his tone he really likes cooking, and sharing it with us. Thank you on your comment, have a wonderful Day ! :D
I love this recipe, I think I'm going to make it for Sunday dinner again. But I don't use lamb, their to cute to eat. I've made it with no meats and it taste just as yummy!
i put almond extract in my last batch and they were delightful
I thank you so much for this quick, easy, and delicious video! First time trying them and it was perfect! 👍🏽
honestly chef John! This is the BEST BEST BEST pancake recipe EVERRRR! I now made it twice and they are the best pancakes I've ever eaten!
I use buttermilk instead of sweet milk. I love that little bit of tang to go with the butter and syrup.
I add a little vanilla for better pancake flavor. And use a cast iron skillet.
If you like using a skillet and lots of flavor, try making a Dutch baby. Chef John made one on his channel if you want to check it out
I worked as a QC tech at a bakery that made pancakes for a major burger chain and I now add vanilla to my pancakes.
Another secret is to pour the batter from at least ten to twelve inches (or more) above the pan, start low and raise as you pour, staying centered. This step will make your pancakes more evenly round and leave concentric rings on the presentation side of the pancake, making a more professional looking product.
Sonyag1. I added some almond extract today in the pancake mix , it was phenomenal.
I've used vanilla extract and sometimes add a pinch of cinnamon, the almond extract sounds awesome.
I also add cinnamon sometimes. Bananas too! The kids love it. In college, one of my roommates would add bacon bits and caramelized onions. It wasn't bad at all. What was bad, was that the other roommate would put ketchup on his pancakes, yuk, lol!
My son LOVES these pancakes. He asks for them every morning. Thank you for sharing!
Chef John!! I have been watching your videos for years and tried a recipe here and there. always loved it! but this. WOW. so fluffy, so light, so golden brown. JUM! Thank you!
"Nothing says I don't really love you that much like serving food on ice cold plates." .. Immediately Googles plate warming techniques
Amber 180 There are many techniques, but i prefer doing it with my toaster. Just place the plate on top of the toaster and turn it on for a minute.
@@eugenehvorostyanov2409 I just run them under the tap.. both sides.
Boil the kettle and pour it over them. Wipe off with kitchen paper.
Interesting. I looked up plate cooling techniques.
@Redblade What do you think?
Mouth watering!!
I tried this recipe today and the pancakes were PHENOMENAL. I followed the exact measurements, however, instead of using 1 teaspoon of salt, I only used a tiny pinch of salt. Other than that, I followed the directions exactly as stated in the Website/Blog (Link in Description) and the pancakes were delicious. I will definitely make these pancakes again.
Tried these today and not only was it easy and all the ingredients were in my pantry, but it was delicious and everyone loved it😍!
I make a decent buttermilk pancake, always seems something was missing. Then I came across this video, stopped dead in my tracks...OMG these are my 'Grammies' pancakes from 65 years ago! Tears welled up in my eyes. I looked at the recipe and thought...yeah, my Grammy made great tasting simple foods...the pancakes are simple. NO rocket science needed here. My Grammy didn't use any rocket science for her great tasting foods....NO recipes needed either. Sometimes we'd eat them with tub butter and Turkey brand table syrup (before maple surple became in vogue) and sometimes we'd smear the butter on them and then a light sprinkle of salt. I remember eating 15-20 of these things at a sitting, specially when I returned from Vietnam in August of '67. Them were the good old days. Thanx for this video Chef John.
I am on a DIET and I come here to get full!
I made these for my granddaughter…….she loved them! I’ve made them several times, very 😋 thank you
Simply delicious!! This is the recipe to show off your breakfast cooking skills for the family the morning after Thanksgiving!! Lol!! Makes about 13-15 pancakes....about 20-22 if your making Silver Dollar Pancakes. And leftovers taste just a good as the day you made them!
His voice and his calmness told me everything was gonna be ok
Sifting was originally to take any bugs out of the flour.
Well that was super funny. I'm not surprised
*taking the arbitrary organic supplemental protein out of breakfast before washing it down with Grog*
@@scottmantooth8785 Grog
Wow. Didn't know that.
@@joycegreer9391 Flour weevils are no joke! Disgusting little critters! Store flour in an airtight container always!
I made the pancakes this morning and the came out great. Thank you for the easy recipe
Made these this morning and wow! I did add some vanilla but wow!!!! They are amazing!!!!
Recipe: 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour
3 tsp of baking powder
1 tsp of salt
2 tbsp of white sugar
1 1/4 cups of milk
1 egg
3 tbsp melted unsalted butter
Note: in his original recipe he added 3 1/2 tsp of baking powder, but I just think it was too much and he also added 1tbsp of white sugar instead of 2 tbsp, but feel free to make it your own way!
I will try the 3 tsp of baking powder because I tasted it too strongly in the finished pancake. Can I use buttermilk? Would I take out the melted butter if I do nd just add a bit more buttermilk?
denise paredes
Can I use kosher white sugar?
denise paredes thank you
Can I use brown sugar? We don't have white sugar cause my mom says it's not healthy
lmfao.... but you have brown sugar... which is white sugar mixed with molasses, which is the stuff that they make white sugar from LOLOLOL
MAPLE syrup, as Chef says. None of that vile "breakfast syrup" slurry ... the pancakes deserve the best!
Made these tonight with my mom. They turned out great. Thanks!
These came out great. I've tried many pancake recipes over the years, but these were the best. Really... Thanks!
I'm so sad this reminds me of my father's homemade pancakes light and fluffy he used to make the big ones so we each had one and I don't know how he did it but the edges were crispy never burnt and delicious with at that time log cabin syrup. Now I use Grade A maple syrup. Awww the memories!
I, too, love crispy edges...just make sure there is plenty of oil/butter in the pan!
He fried them using more oil in the pan. A tablespoon of cooking oil will do it.
Yup... like everyone says. More butter to fry in.
After changing the measures to European (1 cup = 2,4 dl, etc.) and carefully measuring the dry ingredients by 'cutting' them over the edges of the measuring cups, I've always found I needed to add more milk to reach the desired consistency.
So guys, look for how thick the batter is in this video rather than following the exact measures. If yours seems thicker, don't be afraid to add a little more milk until it 'feels right', like Chef John said.
I can't wait to make these this weekend. I like the texture of these and the size
Fixed these this morning. Thanks Chef John they were fabulous.
little tip: first, work in only the milk, then the butter, last the egg. this way, you get a smoother dough, AND you have the time to look for the whisk :)
Batter...
John: Slight variation, instead of maple syrup squeeze lemon on it and sprinkle sugar. You'll be amazed how good!
@chris Chris who hurt you chris
Chris is a troll and just trying to cause trouble. he should do this on somebody else's site instead of a respectable site like this guy's! Chef John is ace!
These look so good. Everywhere I go (even that pancake chain) they make thick, undercooked pancakes that have a skin on the outside and are practically raw inside. No matter how much syrup you use they just sop it up like a sponge until you’re eating raw sponge cakes. These, on the other hand, look just like the amazing pancakes that my dad used to cook on Sunday morning when i was a kid.
Best pancake recipe out there! They came out delicious
Ingredients for about 12 small pancakes:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
No I'm not better than that I ran out of box mix
I made these just now and served them with whipped double cream, containing sugar and vanilla extract and poured over real Canadian Maple syrup. They were delicious! Thank you for sharing your recipe 👍 I need to make some more.
I just made them and they were delicious!! Thanks a lot for sharing the recipe.
"There's no money in sifting" that made me laugh!! You're hilarious!
Wait... is this recipe on Allrecipes? Cuz I had looked up pancake recipes the other day and it was like exactly the same as this
Thanks for the formula John. I have to admit, I am usually accused of being a renegade for deviating from a recipe. It's refreshing to be a renegade for actually following one! Good cakes, no revisions needed. I reserve the right of course to completely ignore it in the future, but it will be good to have a reliable starting point. Spot on! Nice job.
Of all the pancake videos I've watched, OF COURSE, I should have searched for an old fashion, classic, one bowl recipe. This is the one for me and an excellent base recipe to build any pancake from. Not going to bother looking for any more pancake recipes cause I finally found the one I've been looking for.
Pancakes are a million times better cooked with a lot of butter. After you've had them that way, there is no substitute.
Bacon fat... Even schmaltz.
Oh a nice Ol' Fashioned!
You're right! We know when pancakes are ready!!! Thanks for sharing ♡
Wow these pancakes are absolutely amazing we loved them new fave during our quarantine in Chicago ♥️
When you asked "How do you know when to flip?" I thought you would say something along the lines of giving it the "old Poke-a-poke-a."
"FAIL! It's missing the nutmeg" - John Townsend 😆
And yes nutmeg for sure !
Ok no kidding but these were the BEST pancakes I've ever had! thank you for this recipe, I believe the melted butter really does make a difference!
Chef John.. you are the best... Thank you a million times for this and so many other great recipes... and thank you for making us laugh..
Forgive me if this is a seemingly facetious question, but does the melted butter need to be clarified first? Or do you just use melted butter? Or would that even make a difference?
+SS4Xanatos no, just melt cool and use
+SS4Xanatos clarified butter is melted butter
No it is not. Clarified butter is milk fat rendered from butter to separate the milk solids and water from the butterfat. It doesn't taste like butter.
cartossin That was my thought on it. But what I was asking at the time was is it necessary to clarify the butter? Or can you simply melt it?
SS4Xanatos Just melt it.
You can add two teaspoons of cinnamon sifted in with the dry ingredients if one should feel so inclined.
Or for a holiday edition, maybe even a half teaspoon of allspice ... or nutmeg.
...Or alternatively, one could stir the cinnamon, and/or the allspice, and/or the nutmeg into some honey and pour that over the pancakes in place of the maple syrup.
...Or, one could simply sprinkle one, two, or even all of those three spices on top just before taking your first bite.
Thank you 😊 I was looking for this recipe!
