Pancakes From Scratch

 

Check out the best pancakes from scratch recipes below!

Pancakes from scratch are delicous, we all know this. But there is something about waking up on a sunday morning and having that ridiculous craving for pancakes. However, when you want to make some pancakes, what do you find yourself doing? Going to the pantry, getting that pancake mix out of the jumbo bag and adding some special ingredient that it calls for on the back of the box. Yes, that is what you do, well, I should say that is what you did. From now on when you want some pancakes you are going to go to the kitchen, get all the ingredients together to make yourself some delicious pancakes from scratch. I am confident that after you make my recipe for pancakes from scratch, you will never buy a mix again. Eating some pancakes from scratch is like eating a little piece of accomplishment - what I mean by that is that you actually did something! You didn't just let some mix do the fun part for you! Think about it - when have you ever went to a party, or went anywhere really and enjoyed something that came from a mix or from a box more than something that was made from scratch. You didn't, and the person that made that food, feels a little bit better about themselves for cooking something from scratch. If you are interested in healthy pancakes, I have a page for that too!

Firstly, I would like to thank you for visiting my little site - I have a friend of the family who I made my pancakes for and they insisted that I share my recipe with the rest of the world, and to be honest - I am not one of those types of people who are going to be sticklers about who sees my recipes or if it is a family recipe... I like to share so that is why I made this site.

Now, before I give you my pancakes from scratch recipe, realize that I have a large family, so when I make a batch of pancakes, I make a TON! so here goes it...

 

Ingredients:

3 cups of all purpose flour

7 teaspoons of baking powder

2 teaspoons of salt

2 tablespoons of white sugar (I have tried sugar alternates, but I have still found white suguar to be the perfect taste)

2 1/2 cups of milk

2 eggs

6 delicious tablespoons of melted butter

and then my 2 secret ingredients: 1 tablespoon of cinnamon - gives it that "eye popping, followed by a big smile" reaction every time :)

and lastly 1/4 cup of SpriteĀ® for an incredibly fluffy pancake

Pancakes from scratch Prep and cooking process:

1. Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a large bowl, then make a big divot or hole in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients in the hole. Mix until it is VERY silky smooth.

2. Heat a griddle with a cap full of canola oil over medium to medium-high heat. Use about a quarter of a cup of batter to make the pancakes - cook until golden brown on both sides and then serve them HOT.
