Melt butter? Wait for baking powder to do something? Who has that kind of time?

They gots a plastic jug now, you add water and shake the jug for 30 seconds.

Then you pour one giant pancake. When the house fills with smoke, turn it over. Drink syrup straight from bottle.

One of the problems I have with a lot of pancakes is they're too dry, I shouldn't need a tub of butter and a gallon of syrup to make them moist enough that they don't get stuck in my throat halfway down.

I'm dubious on the use of melted butter, I generally find vegetable oil produces better results for moistness in baked goods.

My pancake topping preference, in order from favourite to least:

Lemon juice and brown sugar.
Banana and melted chocolate.
Berries and yoghurt.
Maple syrup.
Diarrhea.

I was about to quote you pointing out how our tastes were identical, but then I read again... berries and yoghurt, seriously?

Yeah, seriously. Warmed berries and plain yoghurt. It's actually not bad. Nowhere near as good as lemon and sugar though.

Am I the only one getting literally sick of eating pancakes?
I can't eat more than one at most otherwise I will feel nauseated...
Any ideas? I like the diarrhea thing, sounds ... different.

My tried-and-tested pancake recipe:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1-2 tablespoons brown sugar (depending on desired sweetness)
1 tablespoon of maple syrup
1 3/4 cups milk (I use Vanilla-flavored soy milk)
1 egg
2 tablespoons light olive oil
1 tsp each of nutmeg and cinnamon

Mix dry and wet ingredients seperately, then whisk together until lump-free, let stand until thickened, and then cook on medium heat. After about 30 seconds in the pan I add some sort of fruit combination into the pancake including blueberry, raspberry, pineapple, strawberry, apple, etc. I then cover the fruit with some more batter. Blueberry & pineapple is an especially delicious combo. Cook until golden on each side, then top with maple syrup or whipped cream (or both).

Agreed. I don't like a lot of restaurant pancakes for this reason. I always use olive oil and add fruit to mine (see above recipe).

evilspongebobsays...

holy extraovercomplicatedness batman!

1 egg
1 cup self raising flour
1 cup milk - (just add a little more if you want them thinner)
turn em when they bubble, butter em as you stack em, sweeten em as you eat em.

I don't make pancakes often, but when I do, I find it helps if I cook just one on the first batch, rather than three as he does here. The first batch always comes out kinda burnt-raw as I get the temperature and timing right; may as well waste just one rather than three.
