Cinnamon Vanilla Pancakes from Scratch
Never made this before until now!
As you guys can probably tell, I normally don’t fiddle with flour. It’s messy and I’m usually at a loss with what to do with it. You think in college all we would do is make cookies but nooo, I haul myself to the library. Oh well. It’s summer now and it’s a good time to experiment, especially since I have an English guinea pig here to test things on. He really, really enjoyed these, And I hope you will too.
Fact: I like my pancakes crispy on the outside, fluffy going towards the middle.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 & 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 cup and 2 tablespoons milk
1/2 egg (okay lol, I know this sounds crazy, but I only used the yolk and some of the egg white. So uh, half?)
1 tablespoon and 1-1/2 teaspoons butter, melted
1.) Mix dry ingredients together; cinnamon, flour, brown sugar, baking power. Then, mix the wet ingredients, combine with a whisk. I did this by hand, but you can use an electric one if you want.
2.) Heat vegetable oil into a pan and pour roughly 1/4 a cup of pancake mixture into the hot pan. I can tell if one side is cooked when the raw side starts bubbling. Then flip.
3.) Serve them haphazardly and half eaten, realizing “Oh snap, I should take a picture of this for my food blog.” As demonstrated in my pictures.
The cinnamon is not obvious in my pancakes, because you can always use more, or none at all.
‘Till next time. ;)
