Family Pancakes


For the past couple of years my husband has been obsessed with perfecting the ultimate Sunday pancake.  Think Alton Brown from the Food Network style but more laid back with kids and a dog running all over the kitchen.

The recipe is finally post worthy and oh so yummy!  It's name formerly known as "Dad's Sunday Pancakes" is now "Family Pancakes" because our kids know the recipe by heart mostly and love to help too!  

So here you go, put on some music we like soul music for Sunday mornings, make a mess in your kitchen and start a new family tradition! 

Enjoy!

Family Pancakes 

Dry Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:
2 eggs, room temp
2 cups milk 2% or higher
1 lemon
4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 

Sift dry ingredients into a bowl.  In a separate bowl, combine milk, juice of one lemon and let stand for 5 minutes.

Whisk in the remaining wet ingredients.  Combine wet ingredients into dry ingredients until smooth.

Use about 1/4 cup measure of batter in an ice cream scoop to drop batter on to ungreased skillet on medium high heat.

Cook to golden brown on each side.
