Bryan's Buttermilk Pancakes

"These are a staple around our house as we make them most every Saturday and have been for the last 20 years. I have modified an old recipe that my mother handed down to me off of an old flour sack. THESE ARE NOT A POURABLE TYPE PANCAKE THE BATTER WILL BE THICK."

directions

  • Combine all dry ingredients with a whisk.
  • In a separate bowl whisk all wet ingredients together.
  • Combine wet ingredients into dry by using a wooden spoon or spatula. Batter needs to be very thick and lumpy -- This is correct.
  • Make sure that you either use a griddle set at 350 degrees or a cast iron skillet over medium heat. (make sure that you put 2 tsp of cooking oil in the skillet before you start. Once you start you don't need to add any cooking oil. Cooking spray may be acceptable.).
  • Using a 1/3 cup pour batter onto griddle using a swirling motion to flatten out. When the batter starts to bubble, flip the pancake. To keep warm we store them in a tortilla warmer. For left overs they can be frozen, just place wax paper in between cakes and freeze in a zip lock. When you want one just pull out and microwave.

  1. I made two batches of these for DH and I and company and they turned out wonderfully! Thank you....so light. Everyone enjoyed them and I will be making them again. Made for Spring PAC 2013.
     
  2. Very good pancakes! I found out too late that I only had a half cup of milk, so I substituted sour cream for the rest. Also used lemon juice with the milk/sour cream instead of actual buttermilk. My only question with the recipe is the "serves 6." Even though I added a bit of water to make up for the extra thickness of the sour cream, I only got 8 pancakes - more likes serves 4, I think.
     
  3. Yum! Delicious pancakes! The batter is extremely thick, but swirls out great and makes a huge and beautiful pancake, not to mention tasty! I ate two and froze the the rest for later! Thanks for sharing your recipe! :) Made for PAC Spring 09

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have cooked both in the Navy and for fun, I have been cooking since I was 7 years old and still enjoy it today. My favorite Cook book series is America's Test Kitchen. I love to read the CIA's "Kitchen and Cook" and alot of my recipe's come from those with modifications. MY PET PEEVES ARE RATING RECIPE's WHEN YOU HAVE SUBSTITUTED INGREDIENTS OR MODIFIED IT!!!!! That's not fair and objective to those reading or those sponsoring the recipe. <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
