Mums Flapjacks Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the pancake mix, water, syrup, butter and cinnamon. Pour batter into a plastic squirt bottle. Squeeze batter into desired letters and shapes onto a greased hot griddle. When undersides are browned, turn and cook until second side is golden brown., Meanwhile, in small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, water and butter. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 4-5 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat; stir in vanilla. Serve with flapjacks.

Steps:

• 1. In a large skillet heat enough lard (yes, lard! ) to give a good layer in the pan when melted. The lard must be HOT.
• 2. Take some bread dough and roll it out on a board or countertop to a thickness of about ½ to ¾ ".
• 3. Just use a sharp knife and slice the dough into strips that will fit into your frying pan (about 2" wide and 4 - 6" long) Score each strip 3 or 4 times to allow it to breath while frying.
• 4. Fry bread dough in HOT lard on both sides till golden. This doesn't take long, maybe a couple of minutes. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn. The dough should be floating similar to a deep fry, not resting on the bottom of the pan. Replenish lard with every few batches to maintain levels. Remember - HOT lard deserves respect and watchful eyes!
• 5. Serve with golden corn syrup or pancake accessories. MMMMMM very yummy and extremely filling.
• 6. Mum would stand at the stove and continually make these until everyone was "FULL" lol She was making them for 7 and everyone would get 4 - 6 (or more). Then she would sit down and have hers :) She always kept enough dough aside when making buns to make these as well. xo

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
• In another bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk and vanilla.
• Melt the butter in a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium to medium-low heat.
• Whisk the butter into the milk mixture, add to the flour mixture, and whisk until a thick batter is just formed.
• Keeping the skillet at medium to medium low heat, ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet, to make a pancake. Make one or two more pancakes, taking care to keep them evenly spaced apart. Cook, until bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, and the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook about 1 minute more on the second side. Serve immediately or transfer to a platter and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
