How To Make Pancakes Exciting
Whether you're fixing breakfast or supper, pancakes are a quick easy meal that everybody enjoys.
You can go the easy route by using an "only add water" premix, or you can make your pancakes special. I tend to go with special myself. It really doesn't take much extra effort.
Here are a couple of my favorites:
As a child, my depression-era father often made his favorite pancakes -- which in turn became my all time favorite pancakes: buckwheat pancakes from a recipe that allows the batter to ferment at room temperature overnight. This makes for a stronger -- almost tangy -- pancake, but in my mind the most satisfying of all pancakes.
If you have wheat allergies, buckwheat is also gluten free. My wife, on the other hand, just likes to add a little almond extract to the standard out-of-the-box pancake mix.
There is so much you can do with pancakes to make them extra special. Get creative and enjoy!
