This is the pancake recipe I make the most often because it is easy. And it is full of nutrients and well liked by my children. These three requirements being met makes me repeat a dish. In fact, I think it is the most often repeated dish in my family, besides a pot of beans, or sweet potato fries. I like how the dough for this mix lasts well in the fridge without overdeveloping. I blend up a mix weekly and put what is not cooked in that moment in a jar in the fridge. My cast iron skillet stays on the stove, and with a dish like this, it doesn’t even need to be washed (a cast iron skillet stays non-stick better the less it is washed and when it is not washed when the only thing left in the skillet is a little oil). I can also remember this recipe as everything is in 2’s…unlike some of my other more complicated recipes, that might be tastier when it comes to pancakes, but far more complex, larger recipes that require steps such as making a buttermilk mix or curdled nut milk mix. So without further ado…here is my staple kitchen recipe.
