EASY BISQUICK BANANA PANCAKES



Easy Bisquick Banana Pancakes image

So, this is basically the Bisquick "ultimate" pancake recipe on the back of the Bisquick box. I've just made an addition and some subtractions. I wanted banana pancakes and I was only going to use 1 but the bananas were so ripe that all the stems detached and I had to use them all anyway. The original "ultimate pancake" recipe...

Provided by Stacy Bell

Categories     Pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 c bisquick (but any pancake mix would probably do)
2 tsp baking powder
3 small bananas (mashed)
1 c milk
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, measure out roughly 2 cups of Bisquick. You don't have to be exact. I think if you prefer a thinner batter you could probably add more milk. Add the baking powder.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Mix in the milk, eggs and vanilla extract.
  • 3. Add the wet mixture to the dry stuff and whisk. It will be lumpy but that's ok. I use a frying pan (coated with PAM) and set my stovetop burner to 2 (which is a low setting). Now, our oven is a little wonky so the low setting cooks up the pancakes really well. Obviously, you know your oven so adjust accordingly. If you have a griddle, even better. I make my pancakes on the large side so I pour approximately 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup in the pan. Let cook until you see bubbles forming and then flip over. A nice golden brown color is what you're going for but if you like your pancakes on the pale side-that's fine. I keep my pancakes warm in the oven (~150-200 F) on an oven safe plate and I loosely cover it with foil. Serve warm with syrup or mix up some (thawed out) frozen fruit or fresh fruit with some sugar (or whatever sweetener you prefer).

QUICK AND EASY PANCAKES



Quick and Easy Pancakes image

Golden little pancakes best served warm with your favourite toppings. They come out slightly thinner than typical pancakes; if you'd like them fluffy and thick, increase the flour and baking powder. A middle ground between crepes and pancakes; if you don't use any baking powder, they come out very similarly to crepes and you can use them as wraps for your favorite toppings, or with the baking powder, they're great as traditional flapjacks. Every pancake/waffle lover should have this recipe. If used for waffles, use 2 eggs, 6 tsp sugar, 1 1/3 cups milk, 1 1/3 cups flour, and 3/4 tsp of baking soda 2 1/4 tsp baking powder. Fast, and with only six ingredients, breakfast only gets so much easier. This is my adaptation of various recipes plus my own influence. We had a family recipe for 15 years, but this trumped even that! Hope you enjoy!

Provided by YoungCake

Categories     Breakfast

Time 23m

Yield 6-12 Pancakes, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 large egg
5 teaspoons sugar
1 1/3 cups milk
1 cup flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil (optional)

Steps:

  • In a bowl or mixing jug, whisk together egg, sugar and half of milk (2/3 cup).
  • Add the flour and mix throughly.
  • Then add remaining milk (2/3 cup) and baking powder. It should be the consistency of thick cream.
  • (Optional): Add 1-1/2 tsp oil if you have trouble with sticking.
  • Beat until smooth.
  • Pour about a soup spoon sized amount onto a pre-heated lightly greased frying pan or griddle (You will need to start about medium high heat but after a few rounds you will need to drop it back to medium).
  • Flip with a spatula when the top is all bubbly (should be a lovely golden colour), and cook the other side (~45 seconds/side depending on stovetop).
  • Remove from pan and pile up on a plate (cover with a paper towel until served).
  • Serve with whatever you like and enjoy.

Tips:

  • Use buttermilk or yogurt for a fluffy pancake: The acidity in buttermilk or yogurt helps to activate the baking soda, resulting in a light and airy pancake. If you don't have buttermilk or yogurt on hand, 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 the batter will result in tough pancakes. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and there are still a few lumps.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking: This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, resulting in more tender pancakes.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat: Cooking the pancakes over too high heat will cause them to burn on the outside before they're cooked through on the inside. Medium heat will allow them to cook evenly throughout.
  • Flip the pancakes only once: Flipping the pancakes too often will make them tough. Flip them only once, when the edges are dry and bubbles are forming on the surface.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you're sure to make delicious pancakes every time. Whether you like them fluffy, thin, or somewhere in between, there's a pancake recipe out there for everyone. So get creative and experiment with different ingredients and toppings until you find your perfect pancake recipe.
