    I make mine with banana and nuts as well. I wait until the banana peels have gotten quite brown and then I just squish up the banana with my hand, add it to the batter along with chopped walnuts. I typically will also add semisweet chocolate chips, Guittard brand. Sooo good.

    Hi Andy, of course I'm a big fan of yours and dared to comment something under your pancake video...
    Another reason to break the egg into the bowl first, is that if you get a bad one, it won't spoil the whole dough.

    You can make the pancakes even fluffier if you separate the eggs and whip the whites first, then fold back into the batter. 👍

      Just a touch more flour and the slightly thicker batter would have more rise. Pan was a little too hot, also. That consistent golden brown, almost smooth top is what you want. A griddle will work better.

    I ALWAYS cook/bake my bacon in the oven.. 350° 20 min flip then 10 min more.. always comes out perfectly crisp not "shattery" though sometimes I want it that way.. but not for breakfast or a bacon sandwich...
    Also cooking it in the oven the strips stay nice and flat and the bacon fat is clean and clear perfect for saving and using for other dishes...
    Plus you don't get fat burns from popping fat in the pan..

    I use a non-stick pan and I only very lightly butter the pan on the first pancake. After the first one is done I wipe out the pan with a paper towel to remove any excess butter and then the second pancake onwards will have a really even golden brown all away across the pancake without that sort of mottled look.

    The recipe my parents always used was:
    2 eggs
    100g plain flour
    200ml milk
    Whisk like a dog until bubbly, then fry in butter. The pancake batter would always flow out and fill the entire pan so you would have very large, thin pancakes. You could then slather on any topping you like and roll them up, then apply more toppings. Delicious!

    @danielnorevik1930 Před rokem

    Ive been making american pancakes every weekend the last 5-6 years and i figured out in my toughts the best way to get that light brown even surface of the pancake. Pretty hot cast iron pan, dry, no butter, then turn it pretty fast while the upside of the pancake still is kind of wet, so when you flip it, the wet surface stick to the pan allowing it to rise evenly. When its done you brush it with melted butter. The bacon is cooked in the oven and then you drain the pancake with the maple syrup

    Guys, if you are struggling for money/want to make a quicker version
    Start with
    1 egg
    1 cup of milk
    And a cup of all purpose/self raising flour sifted as your base
    From there follow what Andy did with mixing the wet with the dry
    Suggestion is choc chips
    I also want to note that this is from 4 ingredients look up citrus pancakes.

    If you want that magazine-cover style pancake with edge-to-edge browning, I'd recommend a REALLY good nonstick pan or griddle and cooking your pancake on it without any butter in the pan. If you have enough butter in your batter, it should aid well enough in the browning to get you that super smooth, even brown color.

Anyway while I was pregnant with my second baby, pancakes were my top crave , and the Greek restaurant down the street was where you’d find me EVERYDAY, so I had to ask the head chef….. why can’t I stop eating these pancakes? What makes them so delicious? He shared his secret. Just a little lemon extract to the batter. They didn’t taste like lemon, more like a rich buttermilk flavor.

    The way to get a true fluffy pancake is separate your eggs! Whip those egg whites and after rest of your batter is together, lightly fold them in.
    Another of my mother’s tricks was to add some butter flavoring so it adds rich butter flavor without extra butter causing the batter to collapse.

    First one can be fine, if you know your stove well enough to get the temperature correct from the start. Induction helps

    I love that you made scratch pancakes but, what should be in recipes is letting the batter rest. Let the baking powder and soda work and let the batter get all bubbly before you cook it. It will be so light and fluffy. I try not to rough it up too much and knock the air out of the batter. I think that is the secret to restaurant pancakes. The batter sits on the line until service and cooked to order. I mix my batter before I start the rest of the meal. I totally agree the first round of pancakes. Those are puppy pancakes at my house. I store mine in a tortilla warmer to keep them hot until we eat. You have to watch moisture build up but it keeps them toasty warm ❤
