Flannel Cakes image

This is the world's best pancake recipe. It comes from the "American Woman's Cookbook", circa 1938, revised 1970. I learned to make these because my mother's pancakes sank like lead in your stomach. These float like air! I like to serve these with jam instead of syrup.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 eggs, separated
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon oil

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, sift together dry ingredients.
  • In a large bowl, beat egg YOLKS only.
  • Add milk and oil to egg yolks and mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  • Stir dry ingredients into the egg yolk and milk mixture.
  • Fold egg whites into batter.
  • Be sure to FOLD and not STIR so that the egg whites retain as much air as possible.
  • Measure out by the 1/4 cupful onto a griddle or skillet over medium high heat.
  • When bubbles just start to"pop" in the batter and edges are set, flip over.
  • Pancake will puff up and rise as it cooks.
  • Cook until just golden brown.
  • If you are going to hold the pancakes in the oven until you serve them, undercook the first ones so that they continue to cook in the oven.
