I made this using pralines & cream flavoured creamer and cut the sugar down to 1/4 cup. I did find that the mixture was really thin so the pancakes were more like crepes, maybe cutting the water down may be an idea. The taste was great though so thanks! -
it's a good recipie, these are not thick pancakes, they are more like thick crepes. Thought if you need something that's no egg these are it. they flavor is really nice. I found they cooked best at 275* and I cooked them with butter. I also used apple cider vinegar. -
taste was great! -
I followed the directions EXACTLY and the pancakes were awful. The mix was extremely watery so the batter spread very thin on the griddle. I started making smaller pancakes using less than 1/4 cup of batter and just one pancake covered half of the griddle. I added some extra flour in hopes to "fix" them. The pancakes that were salvageable had a weird aftertaste (I'm assuming from the soda and vinegar). I tried adding blueberries and more sugar to mask any strange flavor but nothing seemed to work. I ended up throwing away the rest of the batter. From now on if I want pancakes I'm going to the store and getting milk and eggs. -
This recipe is one of those that can easily go badly if the recipe isn't followed correctly or the griddle is too hot or not hot enough... I was craving pancakes badly one morning but was out of eggs and milk I held no hope for finding a good substitute, but decided to check Recipezaar anyway Lo and behold, I found this recipe and it is terrific! I've used it several times, the last time was for dinner last night, it just SO good! I recommend that the one bad review on this recipe be ignored... I'm convinced that it must have been cook's error in that case and NOT the fault of the recipe itself When done correctly, the pancakes cook well, they cook evenly and are fluffy and tastier than any pancake I've ever had! It's really too bad you never posted any more recipes that I could try, but I thank you anyway for this one, it's most assuredly a keeper!
