-* Light and Fluffy Pancake Recipe *-
Preparation Time: Less than 10 minutes
Cooking Time: Approximately 5 to 10 minutes
Makes about two dozen pancakes.
Ingredients you will need:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup sugar (or icing sugar)
- 1 egg
- 1 1/4 cups self-raising flour (sifted)
- 2/3 cup of milk (light or low fat is ok, you can also just use water or a combination of water and milk)
- vanilla essence
Method:
- Beat butter and sugar until creamed or until butter is a lighter colour.
- Add the egg to the mixture, then add flour around the mixture and pour in the milk and vanilla essence.
- Mix all ingredients together until well mixed and smooth. If for some reason your pancake batter mixture is a little thick, stop the mixing and quickly add a little more milk or water. (If you are hand-beating the batter, start from the center of the mixture and beat in one direction only.)
The texture that you are looking for is a thick but liquid-y batter that you can easily pour onto the frying pan.
- Next, heat up your frying pan until it is hot. If you need to, add some oil to the pan. I use a French crêpe frying pan so I don't need to use any oil at all, but if you have to, try to use spray oil.
- Reduce heat and pour pancake batter onto pan to the size/es that you want.
- Let the pancake raise and brown slightly before flipping over.
When you flip the pancake over to cook the other side, you should see that the pancake is raising faster.
Make sure that the heat of the pan isn't too high. A good tip is to make sure that you don't see any heat smoke coming from the pan.
A safeguard way to ensure that your pancakes become light and fluffy is to cook on low heat, but I find that keeping the pan on medium low is usually ok. Just turn down the heat after a couple of batches to reduce pan temperature.
Here are some creative add-ons that you can use with your fluffy pancakes:
Blueberry Pancakes
- Add blueberries into the batter at the last minute.
Chocolate Pancakes
- Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of cocoa with the flour before mixing.
Choc-Chip Pancakes
- Cook your pancakes very thin on one side, sprinkle some choc-chips onto one pancake, flip another one over the choc-chips (so that it's sandwiched) and continue cooking on low heat. Turn over and cook the other side.
Almond Pancakes
- Add flaked almonds to the mixture at the last minute.
No more sit-down breakfast meals only on Sundays, this pancake batter recipe is fast to prepare and make. Rejoice the loving environment of what being a family means.
