Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups skim milk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 cup shortening
Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- Warm the skillet or griddle while assembling ingredients.
- Lightly grease the griddle with shortening.
-
Mixing the Batter:
- In a large bowl, beat eggs, shortening, and milk until well blended.
-
-
Adding Dry Ingredients:
- Add flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to the liquid ingredients.
- Mix just enough to make a creamy batter with some lumps. Overmixing can result in tough pancakes.
-
Cooking:
- Spoon or ladle the batter onto the hot griddle.
- Flip the pancakes over when the edges look dry and bubbles cover the top.
- Cook until the other side is golden brown and cooked through.
Recipe Tips:
- Adjust Heat: If pancakes are getting too dark before they bubble, the pan may be too hot. Conversely, if they’re not browning, the pan may not be hot enough.
- Buttermilk Variation: For a tangier flavor, you can substitute buttermilk for regular milk. In this case, replace one teaspoon of baking powder with one teaspoon of baking soda.
- Serve as Desired: These pancakes are versatile and can be served with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fruit, or whipped cream. However, if you prefer a less sweet option, enjoy them plain or with a dollop of yogurt.
Enjoy your light and fluffy “silver dollar” style pancakes! ๐ฅโจ
