I would prefer to make it from scratch. But it's usually cheaper to use frozen and I'm a broke bitch, so that's usually what I have.
Pancakes definitely don't matter. They're easy because it's just mixing a few powders and some milk or water and egg. Why not just buy those powders already mixed with a binder? Unless it's Bisquick. Fuck Bisquick pancakes. They're just flat dinner biscuits!
Hard disagree. I don't want 1/2 C of high fructose corn syrup, emulsifiers and preservatives in my pancakes, thanks!
1.5 C flour, 1/2 Tsp salt, 3 Tsp baking powder, 1 egg, 1/4 C butter, then whole milk until you get the consistency you like. Best pancakes ever. People who need pancakes to basically be a vehicle to pour pure sugar into their mouth haven't had good 'cakes.
Tell me more.
I'd like to make these pancakes you describe. I'm assuming you melt the butter first before mixing it in? Roughly how much milk is a good starting point?
I used to make Bisquick pancakes all the time, and recently changed to a name brand just add water kind because I tried it for camping once and realized it tastes just as good as the Bisquick, or good enough. I'm assuming that's because Bisquick pancakes are also not actually that good, based on others in this thread.
I like convenience, but I also like good food. I'm gonna make both and do a blind taste test with the wife.
Just made some, added freshly ground nutmeg and a bit of vanilla :)
Thanks for reminding me! Maybe I'll have pancakes for dinner tonight 😅
Please send pics!
