How I Learned to Make Pancakes

However, as I got older, I realized that they take a lot of work and it is no simple task to make them. Therefore, I asked my mother to teach me how to make this dessert so that I could make it for myself and so that I can make it for the entire family without having to ask anyone else to do it for me. I did not know what I was getting myself into.

First, I had to learn how to make the batter. This was not so complicated. By following the recipe to the letter, I had no trouble making the batter for the pancakes. I simply had to get all the ingredients in one bowl and stir properly. I think I should mention that I was about thirteen years old at that time and my hand-eye coordination was not so good. Therefore, I got myself a mixer and with its help, I was able to make that soft cream that was going to be turned into the best dessert on the earth.

I am sure that you have seen on TV those people that flip the pancakes without the help of any other instrument. They simply make a small gesture with the frying pan and they flip the pancakes in the air to turn them around. I have to admit that I was looking forward in mastering this art because it looked amazing and because it was one of the most interesting parts of the dessert making process. However, before I got to that I had to learn how long I should keep the pancake on one side in the frying pan in order for it not to burn. Of course, this was a bit of trial and error process, and after I burned a few of them, I finally figured out how long I should keep a pancake over the heat. I have to mention that my mother was very patient with me and she said that I had to make a mistake so that I could learn from it. Finally came the flipping of the pancakes. I have to say that we were lucky that we had a dog because much of the batter that I flipped in the air ended up on the floor. Without a patient mother and a very hungry dog, I would have not known how to make my favorite dessert today.

In conclusion, if you are going to teach your kids how to make pancakes, you have to have a lot of patience and you have to remember that they will make many mistakes before they get the perfect pancake from the frying pan. However, once they master this art, they will be able to make this amazing dessert.

What is an American pancake?

An American pancake is a thin layer of cake made from a batter and cooked on low heat in a pan from where it derives its name. American flapcakes can be served with various toppings made from sweet savories like bacon to simple fresh fruits and creams and syrups made from maple sap.

What is the difference between American flapcakes and other pancakes?

Pancakes are usually made from three main ingredients which are flour, eggs and milk. The batter is usually watery and the flapcake are like French crepes. The pancakes might also have dark spots in them which are air bubbles and are very tasty to eat.

American pancakes are also made from eggs, flour and milk. But they use baking powder to make the texture of the pancakes fluffy and soft. The batter used to make the American pancakes is thicker. Americans always eat pancakes for breakfast.

What is the recipe to make delicious American pancakes?

Here is a simple method to prepare delicious American pancakes for breakfast. For the syrup you can use maple syrup that is available in the supermarkets. The basic cooking elements needed to prepare American pancakes are:

135 grams of plain flour

130 ml. milk

1 egg beaten to a fluffy mixture

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 pinch of salt

30 grams butter

In another bowl add the milk and the egg and mix them to a fluffy consistency.

Introduce the liquid mixture into the flour mixture and beat till there are no lumps in the pancake mixture. The best method is to gently fold in and then beat it up in one direction.

On a warm saucepan heat a small portion of the butter and let it warm on a low heat. The butter should not burn. Add a small quantity of the thick American pancakes batter and spread it in a round circle.

Do not make the pancakes thick. They should be around 1 cm in diameter. Slowly cook one side of the pancake till it's brown and flip the other side. You should not quicken the cooking process and the American flapcake should be lightly browned. If you do quicken it they would become dark brown and bitter.

How to Prepare Fluffy American Pancakes?

Do you like pancakes? Have you ever tried American pancakes? They are a little more thick and fluffy than the usual ones. I personally love them and will share a very nice recipe for them. You will definitely like it.

Here it is:

Needed products:

135g plain flour1/2 tablespoon salt1 tablespoon baking soda2 tablespoons caster sigar130 ml milk1 large or 2 small eggs, very lightly beaten2 tablespoons melted butter, plus some olive oil for cooking

Preparation:

Step 1: Take two large bowls. Put the baking soda, flour, salt and caster sugar into one of them. Mix the milk and egg in the other bowl, stirring carefully, and add the melted butter. Mind that the butter has to cool down a little bit before your add it to the egg and milk.

Step 2: Mix the milk mixture with the flour one and beat with a fork until you get a smooth batter. There shouldn't be lumps in the bowl, so do your best to beat the mixture well. Leave the batter for ten minutes to rest a bit.

Step 3: Take some kitchen paper and soak it with olive oil. Put a non-stick frying pan on the stove and heat it up over a medium heat. Rub the pan with the piece of kitchen paper, being careful not to burn yourself, and add a ladle of batter. The batter might look too thick, but that's how it should be. Cook the pancake until its top side starts bubbling and turn it over. Bake until golden brown on both sides. Each pancake has to rise to about 1 cm thick. Repeat the procedure until you're out of batter.

Step 4: Consume the pancakes while they are still warm, covered with maple syrup and some extra butter. If you want you can eat them with strawberry or other type of jam.

This is a wonderful recipe, but mind that the pancakes won't taste good if you cook them in a dirty kitchen or pan. They will absorb the odours from the room and will be awful. Fantastic Oven Cleaners recommend that you clean your kitchen regularly, if you want your dishes to look professional and to be delicious.

Try the recipe and see how tasty it is. Happy cooking!
