By Janlia Chong
There's nothing like a nice full and filling breakfast in the morning. A
balanced breakfast with plenty of choice makes a great start to any day!
How hard is it for you to get your entire family together for a sit-down
breakfast? Don't let breakfast become endangered, add some light fluffy
pancakes to your menu and live a great life!
Pancakes are so versatile and easy to make. I will show you how easy it
is for you to make light fluffy pancakes that are tasty and almost melt
in your mouth.
These light and fluffy pancakes are great for kids of all ages as you
can add just about any topping you like or simply eat them like
cupcakes. They are not too sweet so you can enjoy the nostalgic taste of
maple syrup on top.
You can use ingredients straight from the fridge - which makes this
pancake batter recipe a great last minute breakfast item.
I recommend using an electric beater to save time when possible. Save
your time for sharing some valuable moments with your entire family at
your breakfast table.
-* Light and Fluffy Pancake Recipe *-
Preparation Time: Less than 10 minutes
Cooking Time: Approximately 5 to 10 minutes
Makes about two dozen pancakes.
Ingredients you will need:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup sugar (or icing sugar)
- 1 egg
- 1 1/4 cups self-raising flour (sifted)
- 2/3 cup of milk (light or low fat is ok, you can also just use water
or a combination of water and milk)
- vanilla essence
Method:
- Beat butter and sugar until creamed or until butter is a lighter
color.
- Add the egg to the mixture, then add flour around the mixture and pour
in the milk and vanilla essence.
- Mix all ingredients together until well mixed and smooth. If for some
reason your pancake batter mixture is a little thick, stop the mixing
and quickly add a little more milk or water. (If you are hand-beating
the batter, start from the center of the mixture and beat in one
direction only.)
The texture that you are looking for is a thick but liquid-y batter that
you can easily pour onto the frying pan.
- Next, heat up your frying pan until it is hot. If you need to, add
some oil to the pan. I use a French crêpe frying pan so I don't need to
use any oil at all, but if you have to, try to use spray oil.
- Reduce heat and pour pancake batter onto pan to the size/es that you
want.
- Let the pancake raise and brown slightly before flipping over. |
When you flip the pancake over to cook the other side, you should see
that the pancake is raising faster.
Make sure that the heat of the pan isn't too high. A good tip is to make
sure that you don't see any heat smoke coming from the pan.
A safeguard way to ensure that your pancakes become light and fluffy is
to cook on low heat, but I find that keeping the pan on medium low is
usually ok. Just turn down the heat after a couple of batches to reduce
pan temperature.
Here are some creative add-ons that you can use with your fluffy
pancakes:
Blueberry Pancakes
- Add blueberries into the batter at the last minute.
Chocolate Pancakes
- Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of cocoa with the flour before mixing.
Choc-Chip Pancakes
- Cook your pancakes very thin on one side, sprinkle some choc-chips
onto one pancake, flip another one over the choc-chips (so that it's
sandwiched) and continue cooking on low heat. Turn over and cook the
other side.
Almond Pancakes
- Add flaked almonds to the mixture at the last minute.
No more sit-down breakfast meals only on Sundays, this pancake batter
recipe is fast to prepare and make. Rejoice the loving environment of
what being a family means.
