I love Sunday mornings.
Especially when a beautiful sunrise
greets you as you linger
over the very first cup of coffee.
The view out my kitchen window.......
Good Morning Texas!
Pancakes and bacon...
the perfect pairing.
Now, my favorite recipe for pancakes
is The Pioneer Woman's Sour Cream Pancakes.
But.....this recipe definitely rivals that one!
They are feathery light, fluffy and melt in your mouth delicious!
Pancakes will forever remind me of Daddy.
He got on these kicks about food.....
he made pecan pancakes every morning
for probably thirty years!
The reason you find so many awful pancakes is because
people over mix the batter.
All you need is a few strokes with a spoon,
just enough to incorporate the ingredients.
Only flip them once!
The Pancakes
3/4 cup milk
2 T. vinegar
1 cup flour
3 T. sugar
1 t. baking powder
1/2 t. soda
1/2 t. salt
1 egg
2 T. melted butter
1 t. vanilla
Add 2 T. vinegar to the 3/4 cup milk.
Allow to sit for 10 minutes.
In a mixing bowl,
blend together the dry ingredients.
Add the sour milk.
Blend in 1 egg, melted butter and vanilla.
Allow to sit for 10 minutes. (do not omit this step)
After 10 minutes,
dip out batter gently
with 1/2 cup scoop.
Cook on hot griddle,
flipping only once.
Divine, I tell you!
Oh I believe you! They have to be delicious for they certainly LOOK delicious. Thank you for the tips. I know not to overmix, but did not know to allow the batter to rest.
ReplyDeleteYou will be so pleased with this great little recipe Vee. They turned out so light..easy breezy!
DeleteOh my, those look good. As my mama would say 'good enough to eat'. Wish I had some right this very moment.
ReplyDeleteBetsy, this recipe is very similar to mine! Overmixing is the key, but I too have never let them rest. I will try this and no flipping! Your pancakes are gorgeous! I may have to make some for lunch! ♥
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Texas... I will be trying these pancakes very soon, I did Pin this so it won't get lost! I think I love Texas... And of course YOU!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Roxy

ReplyDeleteHello Ms. Estelle, well it's my day off, and I decided to make your pancakes-they're delish! I usually make Emeril Lagasse's pancakes, and your are right up there with his-your recipe is a keeper, thank you for the recipe
ReplyDeleteHello Betsy, I'm coming over through Tessa's blog. Boy, do I love pancakes with blueberries, so I thought I'd comment on this post. What a wonderful breakfast, and the bacon makes it even better. This is such a pretty sunrise. You are a Texas gal? I'm a California gal, and I enjoy the sunrises more than the sunsets because I'm an early bird. Just wanted to tell you that you have such a lovely blog with many splendid pictures.
ReplyDeleteHave a sweet day.
