KAF Perfect Pancakes


Doesn't it seem like all kids love pancakes? My daughter particularly love chocolate chips added into hers. I usually make a batch of silver dollar size pancakes and put them in the refrigerator for quick weekday breakfasts or put them in her lunch box.  She absolutely loves them.

The instructions for these pancakes make them so light and fluffy, they are just like the title of the recipe, perfect. I'll bet you have all the ingredients for this recipe in your house right now.  Give them a try sometime soon.  They are great refrigerated and reheated in the microwave for just a couple of seconds.  Perfect for busy weekdays or long relaxing weekends.


Perfect Pancakes
Recipe from King Arthur Flour


Ingredients
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 3 Tbsp melted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 Tbsp sugar or 1/4 cup malted milk powder
Cooking Directions
  1. In the bowl of your stand mixer, add the eggs and milk and beat until light and foamy, about 3 minutes. Add the melted butter or oil and mix. 
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. 
  3. Gently mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and then let sit for about 15 minutes.  The mixture will thicken while it sits. 
  4. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the batter onto a hot griddle, cook until the edges look dry and bubbles are forming on the pancake, flip over and cook briefly on the other side. They're done when golden brown on the second side. 
  5. You can also make silver dollar size pancakes by using a Tablespoon.
  6. Serve hot.
