LIGHT, FLUFFY AND RICH PANCAKES



Light, Fluffy and Rich Pancakes image

Basic pancakes are simple to throw together and are guaranteed to delight a crowd. But go one step further, separating the eggs and beating the whites, and you turn the ordinary pancake into something almost soufflé-like. These also contain ricotta, for extra richness that doesn't weigh the pancakes down.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup ricotta or cottage cheese
1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
3 eggs, separated
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup all-purpose flour
Dash salt
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
Butter or grapeseed or other neutral oil as needed

Steps:

  • Beat together the ricotta or cottage cheese, sour cream or yogurt and egg yolks. Combine baking soda, flour, salt and sugar. Beat egg whites until fairly stiff but not dry.
  • Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat while you finish batter. Stir flour mixture into cheese mixture, blending well but not beating. Stir in lemon juice and zest, then gently fold in beaten egg whites; they should remain somewhat distinct in batter.
  • Add about 1 tablespoon butter or oil to griddle or skillet and coat surface. When it is hot, add batter by the heaping tablespoon, making sure to include some egg white in each spoonful. Cook until lightly browned on bottom, 3 to 5 minutes, then turn and cook second side. Serve immediately.

Time 15m

Yield 8 pancakes.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup shortening or butter, melted

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Combine egg, milk and shortening; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened., Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top of pancakes; cook until the second side is golden brown.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • For the best results, use buttermilk at room temperature. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the pancakes tough.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. If the heat is too high, the pancakes will burn on the outside before they're cooked through.
  • Flip the pancakes only once. Flipping them too often will make them dry.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

These light and fluffy flax pancakes are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them simple with just butter and syrup, or loaded up with fruit and whipped cream, these pancakes are sure to please everyone at the table.
