How to Make Pancakes

[elleng]

'Through all the breakfast fads, pancakes stand resolute, the definitive breakfast dish, something almost everyone loves and all of us should master. They are the indulgent heroes of the breakfast table: eggy, salty and just this side of sweet. There may have been struggles with burned bottoms and raw interiors in your past, but with a well-made batter and some practice with your stove, you can achieve pancake perfection.'

1. Lodge griddle pans

I have 3 of these, but rarely use more than 2 at a time when I'm making pancakes.

2. Most people have trouble because they're in a hurry

Keep the heat on the low side of medium and wait for the bubbles to come all the way through before you flip 'em.

3. America's test kitchen did a show on pancakes using whole wheat flour. nt

4. I use my Lodge griddle/grill at least 4 times a week. One of the best

Christmas pressies ever!

5. I vouch for using coconut oil for frying the pancakes.

Great for non-smoking medium heat and a nice taste.
