Buttermilk Pancakes

Asalnya beli buttermilk untuk cuba buat muffin, tapi bahan pula tak cukup. Sudahnya, jadi pancake juga. Memang berbaloi buat pancake ni. Sedap dan sangat lembut! Rasanya masam,manis dan masin.

Resepi ini disalin bulat-bulat dari website yang aku dah tak ingat namanya.

Ingredients

The Drys

1 cup (125g) white flour

3 Tbsp (40g) sugar

1/2 tsp (3g) baking soda

1/2 tsp (2g) baking powder

1/2 tsp (4g) salt

The Wets

1.5 cups (350ml) buttermilk

1 egg

3 Tablespoons (50g) melted butter

2 Teaspoons (10ml) Vanilla (add 1 more for kids!)

Preparation

Put the wet and dry ingredients into separate bowls. Whisk each one lightly. Add roughly half of the dry mix into the wet and whisk smooth, not too long. Add the remainder of the dry mix and barely whisk together. Make sure all of the flour is mixed in. You don't want to beat this too much as it strengthens the gluten in the flour and makes the pancakes tougher. Don't worry, you can't screw this up; just don't put it in an electric mixer and let it run forever.... If possible, let the batter rest for a few minutes to allow the baking soda and baking powder to perform their magic. This will make for airier pancakes.

Drop a 1/4 cup scoop of batter onto the pan. You might need to spread it around just a bit if the batter is extra thick. You should hear a *slight* sizzle when you pour the batter; if it sizzles loudly, or worse, big bubbles form as you pour, the heat is way too high, turn it down.

NOTE: The batter should be fairly thick, not runny. The perfect batter should pour onto the fry pan and not move much; it should only require a few taps of the measuring cup to spread it out.

This recipe will make about 8 pancakes and can be easily doubled.

Makan dengan maple syrup. Marvellous!
