PANCAKES FOR TWO, SMALL BATCH PANCAKES



Pancakes for Two, small batch pancakes image

Pancakes for two. A small batch of pancakes for one or two people. Perfect, buttermilk pancakes recipe that makes just 6 pancakes.

Provided by Christina Lane

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus extra for the skillet
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
maple syrup, for serving
salted butter, for serving
fresh blueberries, for serving

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and sugar. In a large glass measuring cup, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, 2 tablespoons of the melted butter, and the vanilla. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir just until no dry pockets of flour remain, but don't worry about lumps in your batter. Over-mixing will prevent tender, fluffy pancakes. Meanwhile, melt the extra butter in your skillet or griddle over medium heat. Using a 1/4-cup measure, scoop out batter onto the preheated the skillet. Cook until bubbles appear across the entire surface, and then flip to cook the second side until golden brown. Repeat with all remaining batter. Serve with maple syrup, extra butter and fresh blueberries.

PANCAKES FOR ONE OR TWO



Pancakes for One or Two image

This is another recipe I found in the 1998 Taste of Home Annual Recipes. It was sent in to them by Ann Schenk of Winnett, Montana.She added two teapoons of wheat germ when the dry ingredients were mixed together, but I left it out. And they seemed to come out just fine.This recipe make enough for one, but if you make them just a bit smaller you could get enough for two. And serve eggs and sausage on the side for a much heartier breakfast or even dinner.Serve with margarine and syrup, if desired. Submitted to " ZAAR " on October 28th, 2009

Pancake Lasagna for One (or More) image

Until now if you wanted lasagna, you had to make a lot, but thanks to this easy technique, that's all changed. This recipe makes 4 single-serve lasagnas, but you easily scale back and just make one, freezing the extra 3 pancakes for later use! The pancakes in this recipe are actually more like thick crepes that come out tasting like egg noodles. It's almost impossible to tell you didn't use pasta--since these pancakes taste like homemade lasagna noodles. Make it as-is or adapt it to your personal taste.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pasta     Lasagna Recipes

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 large eggs
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ cup cold water
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ½ cups full-fat ricotta cheese, well drained
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon finely sliced fresh basil
½ cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1 ½ cups prepared marinara sauce
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
1 tablespoon finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon finely sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Set out 4 small, shallow, oven-proof baking dishes or ramekins.
  • Combine eggs, salt, olive oil, water, and flour for pancakes in a large bowl. Whisk thoroughly until very smooth, then let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • Brush oil into a nonstick skillet and set heat to medium. When the skillet is hot, add about 1/4 cup batter and tilt the pan so it evenly coats the bottom. Cook until the batter sets and the top surface goes from looking wet to dry, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and repeat to make remaining 3 pancakes. Cut each pancake into 3 triangles.
  • Combine ricotta cheese, salt, pepper, cayenne, basil, and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for filling in a bowl; mix with a fork until thoroughly combined.
  • Prepare lasagnas: Spread 2 tablespoons marinara sauce into the bottom of each baking dish. Lay 1 pancake triangle on the sauce, then top with about 2 tablespoons ricotta filling, 1 tablespoon Monterey Jack cheese, and 2 teaspoons marinara. Repeat to create another layer, slightly pressing down on the second pancake triangle before topping with filling and cheese. Top with the remaining pancake triangle, pressing down slightly. Add remaining marinara and Monterey Jack, sprinkle with Parmigiano-Reggiano, and drizzle with olive oil.
  • Place the baking dishes on a large sheet pan and bake in the center of the preheated oven until lightly browned and bubbly, about 15 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes, then garnish with basil and serve.

SKILLET PANCAKE FOR TWO



Skillet Pancake for Two image

Is there a more romantic breakfast than a pancake for two? This oversize blueberry version is infinitely adaptable, too. Stir in either buttermilk or a combo of milk and yogurt for a kick of tangy flavor, and sub in just about any fruit. The result is a skillet-size, super-airy, crispy-edged delight to share.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for serving
1/4 cup plain yogurt (not Greek)
1/4 cup whole milk
1 large egg
3 tablespoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup fresh blueberries, plus more for serving
4 teaspoons vegetable oil
Pure maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a small (8-inch) nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Transfer to a large bowl; let cool about 5 minutes. Add yogurt, milk, egg, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and whisk until combined. Stir in flour until just a few lumps remain. Fold in blueberries.
  • Heat oil in skillet over medium (a small amount of batter should sizzle when oil is ready). Add all of batter and spread evenly to edges of pan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook, shaking pan occasionally, until underside is golden brown and top is almost set, 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Use a rubber spatula to help slide pancake onto a plate, then place skillet over plate and invert back into skillet. Cook, uncovered, until underside is light golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 5 minutes more. Serve warm with syrup and more butter and berries.

PANCAKES FOR TWO



Pancakes For Two image

This is great if you're only cooking for one or two people. Although I usually tend to prefer making pancakes from scratch rather than a biscuit mix, these do come out quite good, especially if you add a touch of vanilla to them, which I always do. And it's nice not to have to spend the time making all those pancakes when I feel like having them. I adapted from a recipe from Betty Crocker.
