PanCakes

Pancakes with maple syrup is a classic American breakfast. We get all sorts of ready made mix in the supermarkets. But I tried to make it from the scratch. One of the mom's at my son's school shared her recipe. I tried and it came out really good.

Ingredients


Flour-2 cups

Sugar- 2 tablespoons
Baking powder- 2 teaspoons
Salt to taste
Butter- 4 tablespoons (2 ounces), melted
Eggs- 2
Milk - 2 cups
Water

Method

  1. Melt the butter and set aside.
  2. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Mix well with a whisk.
  3. Beat the egg in another bowl with a whisk lightly. Gradually add melted butter, whisking all the while. Stir in milk slowly. Pour this mixture onto the other mixed ingredients. Mix them together with a spatula gently . Add little water. Batter should not be too thick, but like a creamy soup.
  4. Let it stand for 15-20 mnts. The batter might get thick.
  5. Heat a dosa pan. On medium flame pour 2 tbsp batter . Spread it with the spoon to your desired thickness(1/8 inch). When the lower side is brown (10-15secs)turn and cook the other side.

Eat it with butter,honey or maple syrup.
