When to flip the Pancake?
Though preparing the pancake is an easier task however, the main query arises when to flip it. The batter must be poured on the pan that is kept on a medium flame.
The best time to flip the pancakes is when you see these two indicators.
– If you notice the edges turning brown on the underside of the pancake, then it’s an indication that the pancake needs to be flipped.
– When bubbles start to form on the top of the pancake, then it means it is ready to be flipped.
Follow these indications and your pancake recipe will turn out perfect.
What can I top the pancakes with?
If maple syrup isn’t your thing, then you can add blueberry or chocolate chips to induce some flavour in the recipe.
You can combine it in the batter or you can spread it on the base accordingly.
You can even slather these homemade pancakes with strawberry butter to enhance the flavour.
Nutella is my all time fav to top these pancakes with.
If you want to make it even more fancy, top with some clotted cream or cream fraiche, honey and seasonal fruits.
Can I make Waffles using this Pancake recipe?
This pancake recipe is versatile as it can be used to make deliciously crispy waffles as well.
Waffles are made from a richer batter than pancakes, with an additional amount of fat being it egg or oil.
So add one extra egg and 1/2 tbsp butter to the pancake batter and voila, comes waffles.
How to make Pancake Mix?
Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, salt in a bowl and seal it in a plastic bag or a storage container.
When you are planning to use, add 1 cup milk, 2 eggs and 1/4 cup melted butter to the pancake mix and make pancakes.
How to make Pancake without Baking Powder?
To make pancake without baking powder, separate the egg white from the yolk. Add the yolk in the other ingredients.
Whisk the white with sugar until stiff and then fold it in the pancake mix. It will give you fluffy pancakes without using baking powder.
How to make Pancake Recipe without Milk?
