Recipe Introduction


With several Variations
Serving Size: 1
Makes 4, 5-inch pancakes.

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar (may be omitted)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup 1% buttermilk (I use skim buttermilk - place
2 tablespoons drained applesauce (from 3 tablespoons undrained)
2 egg whites

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk and stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt until combined, about 20 seconds. Set aside. Place a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1/4 teaspoon vegetable oil.

While the skillet is heating, add the buttermilk, drained applesauce and egg to a medium mixing bowl and whisk until combined, or about 20-25 seconds. With a rubber spatula fold and stir the flour mixture in until combined and almost smooth, or about 30 seconds.

Fold a paper towel into eighths and, using it as pad, spread the vegetable oil over the surface of the skillet. When a few drops of water skitter and dance on the surface of the skillet, pour a generous half cup of batter into the center.

Tip the skillet gently to spread the batter out a little. Cook until bubbles appear in the center. Flip over and cook for two minutes more or until the pancake when pressed in the center, springs back.

Blueberry Pancakes:
Pour the batter for a single pancake in the skillet and then distribute about 10-12 washed and dried blueberries in the wet batter, proceed as directed.

Buckwheat Pancakes:
When making the batter use 1/2 cup buckwheat flour and 1/2 cup white flour and proceed as directed.

Whole Wheat Pancakes:
Use 1/3 cup of whole flour and 2/3 cup white flour and proceed as directed.

The pancakes may successfully be held on a plate placed in a 170 degree F. oven. Just cover the prepared pancakes with a paper towel to reduce any loss of moisture. This recipe may be doubled or tripled successfully.
