GRANDAD'S PANCAKES



Grandad's Pancakes image

This secret family pancake recipe was passed down from my grandfather. He fed a family of 7 (including 4 growing boys!) on these pancakes, and refused to give anyone the recipe until he finally relinquished it to my mother (his daughter-in-law) before he passed away. It is a long-standing family favorite!

FAMILY FAVORITE PANCAKES

This is from a very well-used recipe booklet called "Family Fare: Food Management and Recipes", published by the Department of Agriculture in April 1968. The booklet is literally falling apart. I thought I would try to preserve it here. The recipe has been increased from the original to better provide for our very large family.

Yield Makes eighteen 4-inch pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large eggs
2 cups buttermilk
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup diced bananas (2 large)
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
Nonstick cooking spray or 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and buttermilk. Stir in the melted butter.
  • In a small bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined - don't worry if there are a few lumps. Stir in the bananas and pecans.
  • Lightly grease a large sauté pan or griddle with the nonstick spray or butter. Heat the pan until hot and then spoon out 3 tablespoons of batter per pancake. Cook the pancakes until the tops look dull and a few of the bubbles pop, about 3 minutes. Turn the pancakes over and cook for another minute.
  • Transfer the cooked pancakes to an ovenproof dish and place in a warm oven until the entire batch is ready to be served.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your pancakes a better flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes: This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, which will make your pancakes more tender.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat: This will prevent them from burning. Cook each pancake for about 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  • Serve the pancakes with your favorite toppings: Butter, syrup, fruit, and whipped cream are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Pancakes are a delicious and versatile breakfast food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a pancake recipe that everyone will love. Whether you like your pancakes fluffy, thin, or somewhere in between, there's a recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, give pancakes a try.
