Pancake Creep

Post by talasiga »

Let me see now - time for another pub topic where people don't directly interact with each other - a useful topic with practical information.

(yes, I hope ya'll like my new journalistic style of writing - just had my dessert - ooh yeah - getting sleepy and all that)

So lets get on with it.

How about each poster gives us their favourite pancake
or crepe suzette recipe?

Just write your recipe and no comments or purports to posts of others - just post after post of recipes. Useful information for honest, hardworking, stable folk who don't come to the internet for human interaction or for truly enlightened people who
(unlike me) are not presumptuous about what such interaction is.

And to doubly ensure that the topic remains boring, I just won't come back to enthuse anyone or to converse or tease anyone at all PROVIDING everyone just posts one recipe after another ad nauseum.

No-one to talk to each other, OK?

So, can we have thousands of recipes now?

(oh, and I am detaching my signature especially for this post. see - no signature below!)

I don't like crepes suzette. So I don't have a recipe for them. But I do like pancakes. I'll post a recipe later, perhaps. For now, I'd rather be unco-operative :twisted:

Ahem...

Banana Fritters (vegan friendly)

2 mashed ripe bananas
1 C white or whole-wheat flour
pinch each, cinnamon & nutmeg
(ick. forget the raisins, but nuts are cool if you like them.)
1 C. milk from cows or tofudecows, or rice cows
2 T. margarine

1. Mix all the stuff together until smoothly blended. Add your type of milk if too thick.

2. Cook on lightly oiled skillet by 1/4 cupfuls, 'til both sides golden-brown.

Not if you look at these things in a cosmic sense ;)

Sigh...oh alright. I'll post a recipe. Here's a basic one that I used just this morning:

Pancakes á la Izz:

2 cups flour
1 Tbs. baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbs. sugar
1-2 eggs
1 1/2 - 2 c milk
2 Tbs melted butter

Preheat griddle (cast iron works well). Mix together dry ingredients. Beat the eggs into the milk, then stir in the melted butter. Gently stir this into dry ingredients...stir only enough to moisten the flour (if it is over mixed, the pancakes will be tough). A few lumps are fine.

Pour 1/2 c of batter onto preheated, greased griddle (I use a bit of vegetable oil or butter to grease...you only need a little bit). Cook until the pancakes look dry along the edges. Flip, and then cook for about another minute or so. Serve with butter, maple syrup, or any other topping of your choice.

I wonder if "ya'll" could mean "you will" instead of "you all" since now we often use "ya" to mean "you". So for ya'll, "I hope you will like..."---->"I hope ya will like...."---> "I hope ya'll like...." and for y'all, "I hope you all like...."--->"I hope y'all like....". The pronunciation would be different I suppose----yull and yawl. Something like that.

Sorry. I don't have any pancake recipes and I'm feeling uncooperative and I have to do the dishes. Blah!

I learned a recipe from an Austrian student who stayed with me for a couple of days awhile back. They're kind of like crepes, but he insisted they're Austrian pancakes.

For the pancakes, use 2c/500 ml milk, 1-1.5 c/250-350 cc flour and 3 eggs. Mix it in a blender or with a whisk; it should be somewhat thinner than hotcake batter.

Pour a thin layer (thicker than crepes, maybe more like a soft taco tortilla) into a good sized skillet or griddle, well coated with oil. Once the batter is set, turn over and cook for another minute or so.

For the stuffing, pour a goodly amount of oil into a skillet and finely dice an onion. Slowly brown the onion till it's basically jet black. Then add some salt and sliced mushrooms. Cook till the mushrooms have given up all their water, then add maybe a cup of water with a tbsp of cornstarch dissolved in it.

Spoon a bunch of stuffing onto a pancake and roll it up.

Man that's making me hungry. Unfortunately I have a London broil marinating already.

2 cups Aunt Jemima complete buttermilk pancake mix
1.5 cups water (if memory serves)
stir for 10 seconds with a whisk
drop onto skillet to form pancakes.


Really, most pancake mixes are nearly as good as pancakes from scratch..the ingredients are so totally basic. Of course, you pay more for a mix, but you don't have to bother mixing stuff up, so it's a trade off ;)

Yer basic U.K. pancake recipe is on the 1:1/2:1/4 principle.

1 egg : 1/2 pint milk : 1/4 lb flour. (and a level teaspoon of baking POWDER [not soda]) and salt to taste.

It doesn't work with American measures. But with the idea that one American cup is half a British Pint, and looking at Izz's recipe, it may well equate to

1 egg: 1 cup of milk : 1 cup of flour.

I like my pancakes the Scotch way: half an inch thick and a six-inch circle. My wife prefers galettes: thin as paper and nine-inch diameter, if you have a skillet big enough. BTW: Galettes if they are savoury, Crepes if they are sweet.

So I do mine with Baking Powder, and maybe a little more flour, and a firmly beaten pancake mix that is left to stand for five minutes. My wife does hers without the Baking Soda, and no need to let it stand.

Hot skillet wiped with (the merest trace of) buttery greaseproof paper,

and really the rest is up to you.

We used to have a recipe for vegetarian stuffed pancakes. I think they had cream cheese and onions inside, and a cheese sauce on the top and they were baked in the oven for fifteen minutes or so. Not long.

Whatever it says on the Bisquick box, but only 1 egg and only half the other ingredients to make a few for 3 people.

This must be the most rhythmically-inspired Scottish pancake recipe ever.

There's a place in Austin that servers fantastic ginger pancakes. Or at least they did twenty years ago. I've been meaning to try to recreate it for a while , now I've got a hankerin' for them again.
