SPECIAL PANCAKES (BATTER CAKES)



Special Pancakes (Batter Cakes) image

These are the best of the best in old-fashioned pancakes. (Thank you, Halifax Liz for letting me know that your grandmother was making these in Northern Ireland 70 years ago.) It's no wonder a recipe like this has such staying power, they're super easy & make use of on-hand ingredients. The secret to their firm but fluffy texture is using tiny cubes of white bread to support the batter. But you'll never know they're in there! I've been making this recipe for about 10 years now & I like to serve these pancakes with jams, maple syrup & my homemade syrup from Recipe #22066. I also usually double the recipe if there is more than just the 3 of us eating. The recipe was found in "Pancakes A to Z", one of the three books in my favorite cookbook series by Marie Simmons and there titled "Rux's Family's Favorite Pancakes". My family simply dubbed them "Special Pancakes" and even though it doesn't take a special day to make them, they make ANY day feel special.

Time 13m

Yield 14 3-inch pancakes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 slices firm white bread (I use whatever type I have on hand)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 cup milk
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (maybe less, for griddle or skillet)

Steps:

  • Using a serrated knife, trim the crusts off the bread & then cut the bread into 1/2 inch cubes.
  • In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes, flour, sugar and baking powder.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk & eggs, then stir in the melted butter. Add to dry ingredients, stirring to blend.
  • Let mixture stand for 5 minutes.
  • Stir mixture well, breaking up some of the cubes.
  • Heat large non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat (I use 300-350° on my old electric griddle).
  • Lightly brush the griddle with vegetable oil (I use a paper towel folded several times to spread the oil evenly onto the griddle.) Non-stick cooking spray can be substituted but I have found we prefer to use the light film of oil because it really adds to the outer color & texture of the pancake.
  • Pour a scant 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle. Adjust the heat to medium-low and cook until the bottoms are lightly browned.
  • With a large spatula, carefully flip the pancakes over to brown the other side. Repeat til all the batter is used up. Serve with syrups or jams of your choice.

Tips for Making Pancakes

  • Use the right ingredients. Make sure you have all of the ingredients you need before you start cooking. This includes flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, eggs, milk, and butter. Fresh ingredients will also make your pancakes taste better.
  • Mix the batter correctly. Don't overmix the batter, or your pancakes will be tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined and there are no lumps.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. Medium heat is the key to fluffy pancakes. If the heat is too high, the pancakes will burn on the outside before they're cooked through on the inside. Don't flip the pancakes too often, or they'll be dry.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately. Pancakes are best when they're served fresh off the griddle. You can add butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream to your pancakes.

Conclusion

If you follow these tips, you'll be able to make delicious pancakes that everyone will love. Pancakes are a versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. You can also use them to make sandwiches, wraps, or even desserts.
