For the first time in my life last night I made pancakes. They tasted pretty good. Of course it was 3am and I was half-drunk and everything tastes great with syrup.
Late night pancakes sound good - we always went with either homemade egg mcmuffins or grilled cheese to wrap up a long night of partying back in the days.
I know a certain skanky crusty diseased blonde with a pancake butt that I would never take a bite of. Even late night out of desperation. I actually haven't eaten pancakes since I started my diet. Now I'm all about kale salads and protein shakes. And exercise. And socks.
One of the few things I make really well is the crépe-style pancakes. TV makes it sound like they're difficult to make, but they're actually quite easy. Use a small frying pan that isn't nonstick, and spray it with Pam between each one.
The traditional way is to cook them on a bonfire during Midsummer, then serve with lingonberries and whipped cream. So much better than those fluffy things, lol.
I don't like pancakes (too thick) but I adore crepes and like Zeeky said, they're actually very easy to make! I use an Ikea small non-stick fry pan and they come out perfect every time. Serve with ricotta/cream cheese/cottage cheese filling and topped with cherries, blueberries, or strawberries (in winter, defrost frozen berries and cook with 2 T sugar and 1 T cornstarch), dust with powdered sugar. I make it every birthday morning for my nephews. :)
Mr Jenner, you seem nice and all, but I read "got me hungry for creeps" at first and I thought, there are enough of them in that family, why does he want more?
Hi Seven, we have a pretty crazy brood but a lot of it is television magic. Our lives really are not that crazy, but it makes for good tv. I like that your picture moves, that is pretty cool.
Seven, an IKEA pan is the perfect choice. Because when you go to buy the pan, you can grab some lingonberries, and if you're feeling lazy that day, premade, frozen Swedish pancakes.
I'm digging your filling suggestions! Haven't really branched out with that stuff and it's high time I did. Nom!
There's a restaurant in Thunder Bay, Ontario called The Hoito. They make the BEST Finnish pancakes in the world! Huge, thin and dense, not fluffy. Amazing. We're going there this summer, and I can't wait!
Cee Kay - Finnish pancakes (pannukakku) are the best! That's what mine are.
Just looked up Hoito restaurant in Thunder Bay and oh my goodness, I so want to go with you! There are so few Finnish places in North America. Finlandia University in Hancock, Michigan; Lake Worth, Florida has a Finn community and a festival each year -- but not much more.
YUM!
ReplyDeleteYou can buy some really cool pancake mixture here - everything you need is in the packet; you just need to add milk and whisk.
I like mine with slightly warm glazed ham off the bone, banana, and lashings of maple syrup.
LD prefers Belgian waffles. Kourtney prefers my saus-ige.
ReplyDelete@Stepforded....sounds TOO yummy!

Yo Rob, let me fill you in on a little secret. You can make pancakes using your protein powder mix. One of my buddies does that. True story.
DeleteLOL @ pancake butt!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of grown man has never made pancakes?
ReplyDeleteBisquick….you can't beat it

Fast meal that all kids love - too bad syrup is 60 bucks a gallon now.

ReplyDeleteOnly half-drunk at 3 a.m.? You need to try harder!

Crêpes (rhymes with Depps, not Drapes) rule, but their sibling, galettes are wonderful too, filled with savory things like ham egg and cheese, etc.
ReplyDeletePancakes sound yum. Thanks alot ent. Now I'm hungry.
ReplyDeleteI made a rule years ago after trying to burn an apartment down making chilli at 3 am: microwave or sandwiches only when drunk
ReplyDeleteOr donairs!
DeleteDanica Patrick can't give her fans a checkered flag, so she gave them a nipple to keep em interested.
ReplyDeleteNSFW Danica selfie
Yup, I looked...
DeleteShe reminded me of Princess Stephanie-sort of mannish in the face.
Yeah well I looked too but only misread it as Danica McKellar and didn't believe Count.
DeleteMy family always gets annoyed by me cause I will only buy Light or Sugar Free syrup. LOL

ReplyDeleteSausagw with syrup is amazing. Also, you have to try French Toast with cheddar cheese sauce.
ReplyDeletePancakes are only a vehicle to eat honey! Just like chips are only for eating jalapenos.
