Preparation is simple enough. Use a griddle if possible as you get more pancakes cooked at once. Get maple syrup, which ever strikes your fancy; real or flavored sugar. Serves 4-6.
In a bowl, whisk the following ingredients:
- 360g/3 cups of All purpose flour
- 50g/1/4 cup of sugar
- 10g/2 teaspoons of salt
- 11g/2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 5-6g/1 teaspoon of baking soda
In a bowl, mix the following ingredients:
- 460ml/2 cups of milk
- 55ml//1/4 cup of vegetable oil
- 10g/2 teaspoons of vanilla
- 55ml/1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar
- 3 eggs
Once mixed, pour the liquid into the dry and using a spatula, fold the ingredients. Don’t finely stir it, there should be some small lumps when done. Around 20 times with the spatula.
Put a large pat of butter on the griddle. Using a scoop such as an ice cream scoop or soup spoon, carefully, and without stirring the mixture, scoop up an egg sized amount of batter and place it on the griddle.
As always, while it cooks, watch it for bubbles. As bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake, watch for a few popping. At about that point, using a plastic spatula, flip the pancakes. To test, softly push on the surface. As it’s cooked, it should be soft and fluffy and should bounce back from the push.
