Guest guest Posted August 27, 2001 Report Share Posted August 27, 2001 I made these from the Plugged In book by Lora Brody (picked it up last weekend for $1.99 at Waldenbooks). I was supposed to make them with a blender but I don't have a standing blender. All I have is a hand blender. I used it. These came out terrific. They were very fluffy and light. I'll make this my standard pancake recipe from now on: @@@@@ Basic Pancakes or Waffles | Plugged In by Lora Brody | 4 cups all-purpose flour 2 tbsp sugar (to 4), or to taste 1 tbsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp salt 4 large eggs 4 cups buttermilk, OR 4 cups plain yogurt, OR 4 cups milk, mixed w/1/4 c. vinegar 1/2 cup butter or margarine (1 stick), melted 1 cup berries or diced fresh fruit, optional | Place all ingredients except fruit in blender, and blend on medium speed for 30 seconds, then use a rubber scraper to push any dry ingredients down into the batter. Blend another 30 seconds. The batter should be smooth and thick but still pourable. Stir in the fruit by hand.* Oil a griddle or waffle iron and preheat it until a few drops of water sprinkled on the surface splatter immediately. Use a 1/4 cup measure to pour out the batter onto the hot surface, leaving enough space for each pancake to expand. Turn the pancakes when the bubbles on the top surface pop and don't fill in. The flip side takes only half the amount of time needed to cook the first. Pancakes can be kept warm on a heavy duty baking sheet in a warm oven. Leave them uncovered so they don't get soggy. Check the waffles when the steam no longer comes out the sides of the pan. Check the underside to make sure it's browned before removing it from the iron. * I did not use fruit. | _____ RisaG MK Independent Beauty Consultant radiorlg Risa's Food Service http://www.geocities.com/radiorlg Updated 8/17/01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
