This is a great recipe that I found in my Grandma's recipe book. Judging from the weathered look of this recipe card, this was a family favorite.

THE BEST BUTTERMILK PANCAKES



The Best Buttermilk Pancakes image

We're transporting you to the old-fashioned diner for a plate of fluffy buttermilk pancakes. Our recipe has both baking powder for an airy and light interior and baking soda for that even golden-brown exterior. We love the tang of buttermilk and the richness of butter for an even cakier stack. This recipe is easy enough for a fast breakfast with the kids or doubled for a weekend brunch with friends.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield about 12 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
2 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for brushing
Butter and maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla and melted butter in a medium bowl until incorporated. Whisk the egg mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are a few lumps).
  • Heat a griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium heat; lightly brush with butter. Pour 1/2 cup batter onto the griddle for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on top and the bottom is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. (If the pancakes are browning too quickly, reduce the heat to medium-low.) Flip and continue cooking until golden on the other side, about 1 more minute. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, brushing the pan with more butter as necessary. Serve with butter and syrup.

PERFECT POTATO PANCAKES



Perfect Potato Pancakes image

I like to serve these potato pancakes with barbecued sausage. They're also nice with baked ham and applesauce or with breakfast sausages. And, with these and other types of meals, they're a good alternative to french fries. My children are married, and I'm a widow. So I don't do as much cooking as I once did. Guests always ask for the recipe when I serve this dish, though. And when my son and his family visited me from Winnipeg not long ago, one of the first things he asked for were Perfect Potato Pancakes!

Categories     Side Dishes

Time 30m

Yield about 16 pancakes.

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large potatoes (about 3 pounds)
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup finely diced onion
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Oil for frying
Optional: Maple syrup or applesauce

Steps:

  • Peel and shred potatoes; place in a bowl of cold water. Line a colander with cheesecloth or paper towels. Drain potatoes into cloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, eggs, flour, onion, salt and pepper., In an electric skillet, heat 1/4 in. oil over medium heat. Drop batter by 1/4 cupfuls into oil, about 3 in. apart. Press lightly to flatten. Fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining batter. If desired, top with maple syrup or applesauce.

Tips:

  • Use fresh baking powder and baking soda. Old or expired baking powder and baking soda can prevent your pancakes from rising properly, resulting in dense, flat pancakes.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, making your pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This allows the gluten in the flour to relax, resulting in lighter, fluffier pancakes.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. High heat can burn the outside of the pancakes before the inside is cooked through. Medium heat allows the pancakes to cook evenly.
  • Flip the pancakes only once. Flipping the pancakes too often can tear them up. Flip them only once, when the edges are dry and bubbles are forming on the surface.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately. Pancakes are best served hot off the griddle. If you need to keep them warm, place them in a warm oven.

Conclusion:

Making pancakes is a simple process, but there are a few things you can do to ensure that your pancakes turn out perfect every time. By following these tips, you can make light, fluffy pancakes that are sure to please everyone at the table. Happy cooking!
