Saturday morning in the Charles home is always delicious because of Alan’s pancakes! Make the pancake mix and have it ready to scoop for a fast prep for a pile of pancakes. We like to add chocolate chips, but you can be the boss of your toppings.
Saturday Morning Pancakes
Instant Pancake Mix
- 12 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tsp baking soda
- 6 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp kosher salt
- 4 tbsp sugar
Pancakes
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 4 tbsp melted butter
- 2 cups pancake mix from above
- Any toppings
Directions
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat, and preheat the oven to 200
- Whisk together milk, egg, and melted butter until combined, and then pour over 2 cups of pancake mix in a bowl. Mix batter together until just combined (lumps are okay). Let it set for a few minutes
- Put a slice of butter on the hot frying pan and scoop 1/2 cup of the batter directly on the frying butter
- Add in toppings if desired (chocolate chips are our favorite, but you can add in blueberries, strawberries, bananas, or walnuts)
- Once the pancake is starting to bubble and golden brown on the down side, flip to the other side and continue to cook until matching doneness, 3-5 minutes
- Place done pancakes onto a baking sheet in the oven until all pancakes are done
