I always try to make my kids homemade breakfast every morning (unless I over sleep, then it's cereal for all, lol) Eggs, toast, oatmeal, waffles are some of the things they'll eat in the mornings. But there favorite is mommies pancakes!
This is the pancake recipe I use all the time! They always come out perfectly round every time. I always have the ingredients in my pantry. And, two I know exactly what ingredients are in my pancakes (I'm to scared to even know what is in those boxed pancake mixes).
(It makes about 10 pancakes. But this depends on what size pancakes you like)
- 1 1/2 Cups of flour...(I use "Wheat Montana" whole wheat flour.
- 2 tsp Baking powder (Bob's Red Mill)
- 1tsp Sugar (Wholesome Organic Sugar)
- 1tsp Sea Salt
- 2 Eggs (organic caged free of course)
- 1 1/4 Milk (Organic 2%)
- 3 Tbls Coconut Butter (or Shortening) I use a non-stick griddle so I almost always skip this.
Sift flour, baking powder,sugar and salt into a mixing bowl. Mix all dry ingredients together until combined (make sure you start off at a slower speed, other wise you'll get a big poof of flour all over you....yes, it's happened to me) Add eggs and milk and mix for about 30 seconds. Stop scrape bowl, and mix again for 15 seconds.
*Hint- I take my spatula and press down on the pancake just to be extra sure the middle cooks evenly.
Slowly heat griddle or skillet. Pour pancake batter into desired size. Cook until bubbles form on the outside surface and the edges become dry. Cook until golden.
You can also add fresh berries, Chocolate Chips, Sprinkles or any other touches you might like in your pancakes. I'll sometimes add a freshly grated apple and some grated cheddar cheese. It adds a serving fruit and calcium (for those picky eaters). My oldest had a faze where she wouldn't touch anything with dairy, so I would add a little cheese. (They won't even know it's in there)
There you go perfect pancakes.
