My 8 year old makes killer pancakes with the standard Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix we buy at Costco. She just adds some blueberries in, and they’re as good as any I’ve had in a restaurant. Just make sure it has lots of good butter and syrup. I’m not sure if I’ve posted her pancake pics before.

Also tried Amy’s gluten free and it was horrible. The Better Home and Gardens cookbook or Betty Crocker have simple pancake recipes that work for me.
I am just so chuffed to have pancake cooking in my life. So happier!!! |
early dinner will be franks & beans
(oops, perhaps this should be in the dinner thread... but really we should have a breakfast thread, a lunch thread, and a dinner thread!) |
While my breakfast was roasting, I whipped up my third try at eggless baking, applesauce cake, which is also oil-free. Oh, and they’re all gluten-free by happenstance because I bought organic oat flour not realizing oat flour is gluten free. The applesauce cake is a little chewy and definitely the least dense of the three.
The egg substitutes thus far: 1) apple banana bread - bananas 2) lemon bread - yogurt 3) applesauce cake - applesauce, vinegar https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...f99dc44ec.jpeg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...2f49e06fc.jpeg |

I bought krusteaz gf pancake mix when my child hosted a sleepover. The gf tasted fine for the children and they had seconds. I’m sure they’d really be great with added fruit. I definitely use butter on the griddle and I don’t use it on pancakes themselves - just the organic maple syrup :-) I am just so chuffed to have pancake cooking in my life. So happier!!! |
Kodiak Cakes Buttermilk pancake mix is what I keep picking up for use abroad because I know the mess that comes when the same persons are whipping up pancake/waffle-making batter from scratch instead of using a processed mix. Used some for the most recent breakfast, but I really would have preferred some French toast at the time. Either way, same maple syrup from west or east of MSP.

Since you already use boxed pancake mix I am confused as to why braslvr's post (suggesting using a mix) was such a life changing revelation. :confused:
I enjoy learning things here and on FlyerTalk. I’ve saved real cash money thanks to FlyerTalk so I take stuff here very seriously and I don’t hesitate to adjust to my learnings. |

braslvr is a cooking genius here and I look at what he says just like I would have paid attention if you or some others said something about pancakes. Despite the temptation for the Martha recipe, I might enjoy the lazy joy of the box.

I am not questioning braslvr's kitchen skills regarding pancakes or anything else. I guess I don't think of a post suggesting something that I am already doing as learning. |
I spent the day at the Pittsburgh Penguins arena yesterday, and their executive chef is amazing! This was our lunch, each course served with a different wine.

My grandchildren and I made dirt pudding yesterday afternoon. It’s chocolate pudding with Oreo crumbs and gummy worms. |
Dinner at PPG Paints Arena. Again, each course was paired with a different wine.
