Sunday's Best Hot Cakes

November 13, 2005


Being the spoiled little one that I am, my flatmate has decided to indulge my taste for blueberry pancakes this Sunday morning. This recipe is adapted from one the most old school cook books ever - the Menonite Christian Home Cook Book. My Aunt Lilly sent me and my sisters a new copy a few years ago and it is filled with amazing biscuit and bread recipes. We have Sister Irene Nikkel from Inman, Kansas to thank for this fabulous find.

You will need: 1 1/2 c of flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 c sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/3 c melted butter, 1 cup milk, 2 eggs.

Step One: Beat eggs slightly and set aside. Sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl.

Step Two: Add the butter and 1 c of milk (warmed) to the eggs. Stir together and pour into the bowl of dry ingredients. Beat only until all ingredients are incorporated. If you over mix ingredients, your batter will become too smooth and not very fluffy (it's okay if there are lumps in your mix, the batter should be bubbly).

Step Three: Melt 1 tblsp of butter in a nonstick large saute pan on medium heat. Ladle in the batter. Add frozen blueberries if you like. Cook until golden and flip.

Step Four: Heat some REAL maple syrup on the stove or microwave. Place a pat of butter on each pancake for the perfect pancakes.

Serve and enjoy (with coffee or tea).

I'm going to revise the recipe as posted a bit. I thought the pancakes came out a little flat, so let's up the baking powder to 3 teaspoons.
