Recipe Introduction


This is from Alton Brown. The BEST pancake recipe I've used and it is a regular favorite. *****NOTE**** There are actually TWO recipes here. One for a batch of mix and one to make a batch of pancakes from 2 cups of the pancake mix.

List of Ingredients




For the Mix

* 6 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda (check expiration date first)
* 3 teaspoons baking powder
* 1 tablespoon kosher salt
* 2 tablespoons sugar

For the Pancakes use 2 cups mix plus

* 2 eggs, separated

Recipe





1. For the Mix:.
2. Combine all of the ingredients for the MIX in a container with a tight fitting lid.
3. Shake to mix.


4. For the Pancakes:.
5. Whisk together the egg whites and the buttermilk in a small bowl.
6. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the melted butter.
7. Combine the buttermilk mixture with the egg yolk mixture in a large mixing bowl and whisk together until thoroughly combined.
8. Pour the liquid ingredients on top of 2 cups of the pancake mix.
9. Using a whisk, mix the batter just enough to bring it together.
10. Don't try to work all the lumps out.
11. Check to see that the griddle is hot by placing a few drops of water onto the griddle.
12. The griddle is ready if the water dances across the surface.
13. Lightly butter the griddle.
14. Wipe off thoroughly with a paper towel.
15. (No butter should be visible.) Gently ladle the pancake batter onto the griddle and sprinkle on fruit if desired.
16. When bubbles begin to set around the edges of the pancake, and the griddle-side of the cake is golden, gently flip the pancakes.
17. Continue to cook 2 to 3 minutes or until the pancake is set.
18. Serve immediately or remove to a towel-lined baking sheet and cover with a towel.
19. Hold in a warm place for 20 to 30 minutes.
