Pancakes From The Pantry Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine mix ingredients. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 8 cups (4 batches of pancakes)., To make pancakes: Beat eggs in a small bowl. Gradually beat in oil. Add mix alternately with water; mix well. Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a lightly greased hot griddle on medium-low heat; turn after 2 minutes. Cook until second side is browned.

Steps:

• For the pancake mix: Sift the flour, cornstarch, confectioners' sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a medium bowl then whisk thoroughly to combine. Store pancake mix in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
• To make pancakes: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with two kitchen towels stacked on top of each other and place in the oven. This will keep your cooked pancakes warm.
• Whisk the milk, butter, vanilla and eggs together in a large bowl. Add 2 1/4 cups pancake mix and whisk vigorously to form a thick batter (it's okay if there are some lumps). Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. (Alternatively, heat a nonstick electric griddle to medium.) Ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet, spreading it into a 4 1/2- to 5-inch round; repeat to make a second pancake. (If using a griddle, make as many pancakes as will fit on your griddle plate at one time.) Cook until the pancakes are golden on the bottom and bubbly on top, 45 to 60 seconds. Flip the pancakes and cook until the undersides are golden and the batter is cooked through, 45 seconds more. Transfer the pancakes to the baking sheet in the oven, tucking them between the kitchen towels. Repeat with the remaining batter to make more pancakes. Serve pancakes with butter and maple syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Make a well in the center. In a separate bowl, beat together egg, milk and oil. Pour milk mixture into flour mixture. Beat until smooth.
• Pour or scoop the batter onto the hot griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

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.

Steps:

• Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat while you make the batter.
• Mix together the dry ingredients. Beat the eggs into 1½ cups of the milk, then stir in the 2 tablespoons cooled melted butter if you're using it. Gently stir this mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing only enough to moisten the flour; don't worry about a few lumps. If the batter seems thick, add a little more milk.
• Use a little butter or oil each time you add batter, unless your skillet is truly nonstick. When the butter foam subsides or the oil shimmers, ladle batter onto the griddle or skillet, making any size pancakes you like. Adjust the heat as necessary; usually, the first batch will require higher heat than subsequent batches. The idea is to brown the bottom in 2 to 4 minutes, without burning it. Flip when bubbles appear in the center of the pan-cakes and the bottoms are cooked; they won't hold together well until they're ready.
• Cook until the second side is lightly browned, a couple more minutes, and serve or hold on an oven-proof plate in a 200°F oven for up to 15 minutes.
