Confession: I don't know how to make pancakes

I can make the batter, but can't get the timing right when to flip them and I usually have the pan on the wrong temp.

Re: Confession: I don't know how to make pancakes

  • I use an electric fry pan.  Works so much better/easier.  But I make them probably once a week.  I make a double batch and freeze them.  It's all the girls will eat for breakfast - or almost all - so I have them on hand.  Flip them when you start to see the bubbles on top.
  • I LOVE my non-stick electric griddle for this!  Even if you don't have/get one, ditto the PP about flipping them when you start to see bubbles on the top.

    My kids eat at least 20 pancakes a week (not including weekends) -- that's a lot of flippin' pancakes ;-)  I make huge batches, semi-homemade (Krusteaz mix, add water, apple sauce & bananas) & then freeze them for the week. 

    Ditto the pp's about flipping when you see bubbles on top.  I use a regular non-stick pan & the key is to not have the pan too hot.  I start it on medium, but lower the temp after I make about half of them.  I've also learned that having a really good spatula to flip the pancakes is key.  I love the silicon one I have from W&S.
