GRANDMA'S "WESTERN STYLE PANCAKES"... AND/OR WAFFLES!



Grandma's

My grandma made these pancakes since I was a little girl, then passed on the recipe to my mom and dad (it still remains one of the only things Dad claims that he can actually make), who passed it on to me. After tasting these, I have the hardest time eating pancakes from a mix! I also double the recipe and make waffles, flash-freeze them, and store them in a zipper-lock bag - my family likes these better than the frozen boxed ones!

Time 22m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups flour
8 teaspoons baking powder (levelled teaspoons... but I use about 7)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 cups milk
1/3 cup oil

Steps:

  • Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, beat eggs and add wet ingredients *and sugar*. (If you add sugar to the dry ingredients though, it's still good -- for some reason it seems better if it's added to the wet ones, though!).
  • Add wet ingredients to the dry, and mix well (by hand).
  • Pour into your waffle maker and follow the waffle maker directions, or pour approximately 1/4 cup onto a hot griddle (I use an electric griddle at approximately 350 degrees).
  • When the top of the pancakes start to bubble and the bubbles start to pop, they are ready to flip. Flip the pancakes and cook until the other side has cooked and the pancakes are golden brown.
  • Serve with whipped cream and strawberries or with butter and maple syrup --
  • Enjoy! (Mmmmm!).

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.

GRANDMA'S PANCAKES



Grandma's Pancakes image

This has been in the family for a while, don't know were it came from, was just passed around and around for 50yrs or more..lol.. i have tried a lot of other recipes but this one is still the best . you get thick cake pancakes and they rise very well we measured once and they were up to 3/4 in thick. This is a very plain recipe sometime i omit the vanilla and/or add fruit and or nuts.. If the batter is a little thicker than you like it , just add more milk, just be careful not to add to much ad they will not rise as much and be more like a flapjack(thin and chewy).

GREAT-GRANDMOTHER'S PANCAKE/WAFFLE BATTER



Great-Grandmother's Pancake/Waffle Batter image

Handed down in my family for generations. It's meant to be refrigerated overnight. However, if you must have your pancakes *now*, measure the baking powder in slightly rounded teaspoons instead of leveled off. Let the batter sit on the counter at room temp until it starts bubbling, to be sure that the necessary chemical reaction is taking place. It's very easy to 'draw' simple shapes as you pour the batter. Children adore hearts, stars, their initials, etc. Addendum 4/21/09: I will tell you quite honestly that I've been rather shocked by the recent spate of negative reviews. Frankly, I'm lost. All I can figure out is that those who hated them must have been eating them plain. And in that case, I can understand why they disliked them. These pancakes are meant to be smothered in butter and saturated with syrup. Should you choose to eat them 'naked', all bets are off. :)

Time 10m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Mix dry ingredients well.
  • Add wet ingredients one at a time, in order listed, stirring well after each addition.
  • Mixture will probably still be a little lumpy-- as long as flour is fully incorporated, this is not a problem.
  • Cover batter and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat ungreased electric skillet or griddle to 400 degrees.
  • Spoon pancake batter into skillet.
  • (We like them'silver dollar' size-- about 2 tablespoons of batter).
  • Cook until bubbles on the top disappear and bottom is nicely-browned and can be lifted easily with a spatula (approximately 3 minutes).
  • Flip, and cook on other side until done.
  • The batter is also wonderful for waffles-- just follow manufacturer's instructions regarding the setting to use, the volume your waffle iron will hold, etc.
  • Serve hot, with butter and syrup (or sugar, or powdered sugar, or molasses, or sorghum, or fruit or whatever turns your tastebuds on).
