A Saturday morning tradition. As she was blessed with grandchildren, they would demand her pancakes or waffles when visiting. And why not; they were delicious. Bisquick mix....yuck!
Stir well 1 t. Baking soda into 2 cup buttermilk. Add two beaten large eggs.
In large bowl, stir together well...
2 level cups flour
2 teaspoons Baking powder
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon Salt
(or 2 c. Self rising flour if you have it and leave off salt and baking powder)
Dump dry mix into buttermilk mixture. Add 2 T. Oil (or 2 T. Melted real butter).
Wisk just to mix well but don't over beat it or pancakes will be tough instead of tender. It will be a little lumpy. No problemo! For waffles the batter should be a little thicker, so not quite as much buttermilk. (Freeze extra waffles, after they are cooled off, in freezer bag and reheat in toaster oven).
I use a flat iron skillet and grease lightly with Pam or you can use a coconut oil. The pan should be hot but not smoking (med-hi). Pour 4" pancakes and watch it start to sizzle in the edges and little craters appear in top. That's when you flip. Brown other side. Add butter and you favorite syrup and/or fruit topping and dig in.
Optional Additions:
Gently fold into batter 1 c. Blueberries.
Or- sliced bananas and walnuts
Or- chocolate chips
Or- whatever!
These are also yummy cooked in a little hot bacon grease, but then again, what isn't better cooked that way!
