PETOULES (PAN-FRIED HONEY PANCAKE)



Petoules (Pan-Fried Honey Pancake) image

A recipe I found while searching for Greek recipes for ZWT, so untried by me, but something I know my family would enjoy. Here is a link to the site I found this recipe: http://www.orexata.com/2012/05/19/petules-pan-fried-honey-pancake/. Here is what is stated about the recipe: "May 21st marks a very special day on the Greek calendar where we celebrate the namedays of Kostadinos and Eleni. Greeks are big on namedays, and is a cause for birthday-like celebrations including sweets, gifts, and parties. Much the same as birthdays in other cultures, the honoree is the host, and has to offer a "kerasma" (kerasma signifies an offering to a guest to convey friendship and hospitality.) My mothers "kerasma" for her nameday is petules, which is a pan-fried pancake covered with honey and dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar."

SHEET-PAN PANCAKES



Sheet-Pan Pancakes image

Last year, when it seemed like the whole world was cooking from scratch and tending to sourdough starters, Ree Drummond had other ideas: She gave herself permission to chill out and take some shortcuts. Her seventh cookbook, The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Super Easy!, reflects her current zero-stress attitude in the kitchen. "It was really fun developing the recipes," Ree says. "I'd made many of them on my show during quarantine, and to me it was a creative challenge to strike a balance between home cooking and convenience cooking." These sheet-pan pancakes, for example, save her from having to babysit individual pancakes on a griddle. They also include a triple whammy of toppings - strawberries, blueberries and chocolate chips - so everyone in the family is happy. What's the Pioneer Woman's favorite of the three? "Yes to all!" she says.

EASY BASIC PANCAKES

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Pancake Recipes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, or vegetable oil
1 large egg
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Assorted toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, confectioners' sugar, honey, jams, preserves, sweetened whipped cream, or chocolate syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees; have a baking sheet or heatproof platter ready to keep cooked pancakes warm in the oven. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, butter (or oil), and egg. Add dry ingredients to milk mixture; whisk until just moistened (do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine).
  • Heat a large skillet (nonstick or cast-iron) or griddle over medium. Fold a sheet of paper towel in half, and moisten with oil; carefully rub skillet with oiled paper towel.
  • For each pancake, spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter onto skillet, using the back of the spoon to spread batter into a round (you should be able to fit 2 to 3 in a large skillet).
  • Cook until surface of pancakes have some bubbles and a few have burst, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and keep warm in oven. Continue with more oil and remaining batter. (You'll have 12 to 15 pancakes.) Serve warm, with desired toppings.
  • BUTTERMILK: In step 1, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to dry mixture. In step 2, replace the milk with low-fat buttermilk.
  • YOGURT: In step 1, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to dry mixture. In step 2, replace the milk with 2/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt and 1/3 cup milk.
  • WHOLE-GRAIN WITH YOGURT: In step 1, replace the all-purpose flour with 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour, 1/4 cup each cornmeal and wheat germ, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. In step 2, replace the milk with 2/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt and 1/3 cup milk.

EASY PANCAKES



Easy Pancakes image

Make every day delicious with this easy pancake recipe. It takes 20 minutes, requires only a handful of pantry staples, and results in tender, fluffy pancakes.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
2 eggs
1½ to 2 cups milk
2 optional tablespoons melted and cooled unsalted butter, plus unmelted butter for cooking, or use a neutral oil like grapeseed or corn

Steps:

  • Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat while you make the batter.
  • Mix together the dry ingredients. Beat the eggs into 1½ cups of the milk, then stir in the 2 tablespoons cooled melted butter if you're using it. Gently stir this mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing only enough to moisten the flour; don't worry about a few lumps. If the batter seems thick, add a little more milk.
  • Use a little butter or oil each time you add batter, unless your skillet is truly nonstick. When the butter foam subsides or the oil shimmers, ladle batter onto the griddle or skillet, making any size pancakes you like. Adjust the heat as necessary; usually, the first batch will require higher heat than subsequent batches. The idea is to brown the bottom in 2 to 4 minutes, without burning it. Flip when bubbles appear in the center of the pan-cakes and the bottoms are cooked; they won't hold together well until they're ready.
  • Cook until the second side is lightly browned, a couple more minutes, and serve or hold on an oven-proof plate in a 200°F oven for up to 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Add a little bit of vanilla extract or orange zest to the batter for extra flavor.
  • Let the batter rest for at least 5 minutes before cooking. This will allow the baking powder to activate and will help the pancakes rise properly.

  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
