Stacked about four high with lots of butter beetween the top two, then, strawberry jam spread thick on top. :smt060 :smt050
 
Buttermilk pancakes...fluffy, in silver dollar style, with a bit of apricot jam spread thinly on top. No butter for me, please. :biggrin Hmmm, we should have those for breakfast. :-D

The Lord bless you, Dave.

Lovely
 
I just don't like pancakes in general, there's a story behind it, but I have a feeling that if I told you you'd hat pancakes too, so I won't go into any details, but I will tell you it involved having to get a new pair of pants , and me stuck in bed for days.
 
Sounds like quite the story, ITYNA. I'm not sure I want to hear it, but it could be interesting.

As far as how I like my pancakes...well, I've never tried them this way, but is certainly sounds good - with butter and strawberries. I'm going to have to try that someday.
 
Unfortunately, there are many stories in my life that involve food gone awry,some having more tragic outcomes, but in the interst of sparing both you and your appetite I won't go into further details.
 
Healthy,.... but then they don't taste so good, and I can't make them even better with real butter and syrup.

Nobody mentioned Bob Evans Blueberry pancakes with whipped cream?

Being from Ohio, i've tried pancakes with 100% fresh/pure maple syrup, MMmmm. A close second.

Also, try using clear cool water, with pure Pappy O'Donnel flour. :o Oh brother...

Being of Norwegian ancestry, pancakes are a near-sacrament in our home. I have fed literally hundreds of people buttermilk/buckwheat island pancakes since I first fired up my home griddle back in 1990.

The most basic recipe involves
2 cups spelt flour
1/4 cup buckwheat blour
1/4 cup canola oil
2 cups whole buttermilk
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp sugar
3 crushed, overripe bananas

Sometimes I scale back the bananas, especially if I'm featuring other fruit (strawberries, apples, or peaches on top, blueberries in the batter)

This kind of pancake deserves real maple syrup, which I and my Father-in_law make from 160 tapped Maples. Also, smother these cakes in butter, and serve real hot.

Sometimes whipped cream with the peaches is the way to go, if you have a sweet tooth.

It's nice to serve some meat with these as well. I grind my own venison burgers, 15% beef fat.

I'm hungry. Uff da.
 
"buttermilk/buckwheat island pancakes"

That sounds good. Man, making them from scratch. 8-) I wonder how many people are Jones-in' for pancakes now. :lol:
 
My dad makes some of the largest pancakes I've ever seen! I mean, these things are enormous! I can only get down about 1/2 to 3/4 of one. Trust me these things are as thick as (if not thicker) than fried cornbread, and they completely cover the sunken in part of a plate.

I don't know his recipie, but I do know that he uses whole wheat flour when he makes them. We normally have a choice of syrups: white corn syrup, Johnny Fair syrup, or regular pancake syrup (affectionately called "motor oil" by Daddy). He always puts butter on top of ours, and we normally have either bacon or sausage to go with them. Personally, I prefer the sausage, but only if it's our homemade sausage. I'm not as fond of the store-bought sausage, particularly the stuff we have right now.

Anyways, I just wanted to share about my dad's huge pancakes.
 
Pancake Day

Sunday was always Pancake Day in our family, because that was the day we'd all drive up to Pancake Mountain, and then maybe on the way home stop and get some pizza.

We'd always sing the same song, too, on the way home. It went like this:

There's nothing flatter
Than a pizza
Nothing you can make.
The only thing that might
Be flatter
Is a fish they call the hake!

- Jack Handey
