Fluffy Club Soda Pancakes in 7 Minutes

Club Soda Pancakes: Light and Fluffy Breakfast Delight

If you’re looking for a breakfast treat that is incredibly light and easy to make, these Club Soda Pancakes are perfect! Inspired by a recipe from the Houston Chronicle newspaper, these pancakes are thin, airy, and far from heavy. The key ingredient here is club soda, which gives the pancakes a delightful lightness. Although the batter can’t be stored due to the carbonated nature of the club soda, you can cook all of the batter and freeze the pancakes for future use. They can be reheated quickly for a fast and delicious breakfast.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups biscuit mix
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup club soda
• 1 1/2 cups water

Directions:

1. Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the biscuit mix, egg, and club soda. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-blended, but be careful not to overbeat. The key to light pancakes is to keep the batter a bit lumpy.

2. Cook the Pancakes: Heat a griddle or a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, ladle the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges start to look set, about 1-2 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side, another 1-2 minutes.

3. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dusting of powdered sugar. If you have leftovers, let them cool completely before freezing. They can be reheated in the toaster or microwave for a quick breakfast later.

Tips:

• For Crispier Pancakes: You can adjust the amount of water to make the batter thinner or thicker based on your preference. A thinner batter will produce slightly crisper pancakes.
• Freezing Instructions: If you choose to freeze the pancakes, layer them between parchment paper to prevent sticking. Store them in an airtight container or zip-top bag.

Enjoy these delightful pancakes that come together in just about 7 minutes! They are perfect for busy mornings when you need a quick and satisfying breakfast. 🌞🥞
