Is there such a thing as a good pancake, co/ck/s? I don't think there is.

What? A panCAKE is cakey? If you don't like it, you don't like it. That doesn't mean it's inherently bad.
>greasy as fuck
I've never had greasy pancakes.
>texture turns to soggy shit with syrup
I don't drown my pancakes in syrup, so they don't get soggy.

Here's a few tips.
First let the pan get hot. Not smoking hot, but a nice medium heat.
Second you've used too much oil. Pancakes like a dry non stick surface. Outside of a commercial kitchen hot plate it's something that cheap Teflon pans are actually good for. Too much oil/butter will ruin the pancake remember it should rise not fry.
The batter should bubble as it hears through. Again if it's not too much lipids.
Flipping a pancake is done for looks, but some of the best pancakes I've ever eaten have only been cooked on one side. Think of it more like an unleavened bread than say a burger pattie.

Keep up the good work, cinnamon pancakes are are tricky thing to perfect. Also next time add some walnuts, banana and maple and you've got a god tier sweet dish.

Jesus, I had no idea that's why they've been coming out so un-fluffy.

They have seriously been fucking frying, as I lay them on the pan they would sizzle and I'd have no idea why, what an idiot I am.

Problem is, I don't have a proper non-stick pan but am seriously going to invest in one.

They should make a sound when it hits the pan, but not a frying sound.
I gave away all of my Teflon pans and do it on my CI.

It's the type if thing we all get told once Anon.
But it's also the type of thing that you won't forget once you get it working.

Once you get that technique right, play with recipes, try buckwheat and buttermilk etc. They add so much flavour and texture to the pancake.
Sour cream in the mix is also another protip.
Not all at once, but experiment.
But get your pan skills down first.

Hey, fuckwits, the sole trick to getting fluffy amazing pancakes is whipping eggwhites into a foam and adding them to your batter.

Separate the whites, drink the yolks or whatever, and whip them until the foam gets "chunky." Then you foam you fold them into your batter and voila.

Enjoy all the pussy you get from making amazing pancakes.

Just read the first and last few posts, but I felt like adding that the batter should be made close to cooking time. If it's made in advance and left in refrigeration for a few days, it can lead to flat, unleavened cakes. I liked them like that when I was a kid (I was a weird kid) and would make the batter days in advance. Gave them a slightly sour taste (like sourdough bread).

Best pancakes are done on a griddle. At home I fry mine in a little oil in a pan but they're never as good as the restaurant griddle ones.

Also, if you don't like yours soaked in syrup, pour the syrup into a ramekin and dip the pancakes in that.

> pancake better than crepe
My sides have just attained terminal escape velocity.

I made crepes yesterday after a youtube recipe, they were amazing.

1 cup of flour
2 cups of milk
3 eggs
1 tbsp sugar
1 pinch of salt

mix flour with one cup of milk until the batter is no longer lumpy. Use a hand whisk, not a blender. Add rest of milk and eggs, then fry batter in a non stick pan with a little oil on medium heat.

I like mine best with nothing but a little sugar sprinkled over them.

>> No.4880737

>>4880736

forgot to mention the tbsp of sugar and the salt, they need to go into the batter as well.

Why make pancakes when you could make waffles? Waffles are like pancakes, only 1,000x better.

You're pretty unimaginative if you think you're limited to white flour pancakes and syrup. Look into a whole grain with fruit and preserves heated up on the side and a dallop of freshly whipped cream. It's a griddled cake limited only by your imagination.

I'm in Australia. Here it's near impossible to find good waffles, you literally need a waffle iron and to make them from scratch.

The ones sold in shops here are like 90% caster sugar, have the consistency and texture of a sugar cube to eat, and are pretty pleby.
