Ah yes. Back from camping. I had an AWESOME time. And an awesome tan to boot.
You know what the best part of camping is? Swimming. A hot day and a cold lake is the best combination. Also hammocks. Oh how I love hammocks. I think I spent half my time just laying in a hammock. I even fell asleep in one. I would gladly trade my current bed for a hammock. It’s like I’m being rocked to sleep.
This much relaxing has brought out my creative side, and I have drawn a cute picture of a Lego couple:
Yeah, I’m not much of an artist, but now..it’s back to reality.
And back to the fridge with this carton of buttermilk staring right back at me. Barely used. You’d think that I would get sick of pancakes while camping. Think again.
(Actually, maybe it’s because I have only had pancakes once while camping..)
I would like to give a warning about this recipe. It makes a LOT. Hope you’re hungry. Or freeze the extras and toast it, which has actually become one of my favorite ways to eat pancakes..
What you’ll need:
-1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
-1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
-3 tablespoons white sugar
-3 teaspoons baking powder
-1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
-1/2 teaspoon salt
-2 cups buttermilk
-1 cup milk
-3 eggs
-1/3 cup butter, melted
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flours,sugar , baking powder, baking soda and salt.
3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking
spray. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake, and flip when bubbles
are covering the surface of the pancake. Flip and cook the other side
until it is golden.
I've never toasted pancakes – great idea. Sometimes leftover pancakes are good smeared with jam and then rolled into a wrap shape. Nice, quick snack. Anyway, I'll never turn down a pancake – and these look great! Thanks.
What a cute Lego couple! Pancakes are a rarity in our house, but I really should make them more often. These pancakes look so perfect!
wow.. pancake looks really light and fluffy.
Having extra pancakes in the fridge is NEVER a bad thing! These look awesome.
I love pancakes! But I would have to make less as I am the only one eating them 🙂
great pancakes! I love them too for a lazy Sunday …afternoon. Rita aka ritacooksitalian
Looks like you had great time camping. Whole wheat buttermilk pancake looks delicious.
Sounds like you had a great time camping! I really want to go camping with my friends before the summer ends, but we'll see how that goes. And I feel the exact same way about hammocks. A good book, a nice balmy day, and a hammock = paradise.
These buttermilk pancakes look so fluffy and light. I like that you use whole wheat flour to make them a little bit healthier.
That stack looks delicious!
They have come out superb.. Just love it
