Poppa Potter’s Pancakes
First Dad starts with an ordinary pancake recipe like this:
1-1/3 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons sugar
1 egg1-1/4 cups milk
3 tablespoons melted butter
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
and changes it like so:
1 or 2 cups stone ground flour
3 teaspoons baking powder (makes them puffy)
pinch of salt
3 -9 tablespoons maple syrup (never white sugar)
1 or 2 eggs
1 - 2 cups milk
3 tablespoons olive oil (instead of butter)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
chopped apples or frozen blueberries (that we picked in London, Ontario)**
**this is the ingredient that I think makes the pancakes (--Jenn)
However the real secret is:
Dad mixes all the liquid ingredients first and then dumps the mixture into flour.You may have to increase milk to get the right texture for batter. "Fold in" the blueberries when the mixture is right. This means that you just add them and only stir a little to mix through. If you stir too much, the batter will turn blue.
Bon appetit Oh yes, I forgot - whenever the pancakes are ready, to be like your Dad you need to announce: "Something's gone terribly wrong." He says to tell you that you shouldn't expect perfection the first time.
Haha, please comment if someone attempts this.
