Storing The Pancake Mix
It is advisable that you store your cake mix in airtight containers or re-sealable plastic bags. Moreover do not store the mix for too long. The above-mentioned recipe will yield about three batches of pancakes so plan according to your requirement.
To Make the Pancakes
Making pancakes is very easy when you have your homemade mix. All you need to do is add 1¼ cups water, 1 egg, and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to the pre –made pancake mix.
Preheat your nonstick pan or the cast iron skillet to 375 degrees F. If you want an easier way to get the temperature right, sprinkle drops of water on it and when the drop of water skitters across the pan, you know it is the right time to start making your pancakes
Next, you coat the hot pan with the oil or butter according to your taste. In case you are hesitant to use too much of oil, better use an oil spray.
In order to test whether you’ve got the temperature right, make a mini-pancake and see that it does not burn and depending upon the result adjust the temperature.
Once you have got the temperature right, ladle in the pancake batter according to the space available on the pan. Make sure you leave enough room between two pancakes so that it enables comfortable flipping.
Variations
To add variety to your pancakes, you can switch a few ingredients to change the flavor of the pancake. For instance instead of almonds you can use cashew nuts, pistachios, walnuts or even hazelnuts. Moreover if you want a substitute for coffee, you can use cocoa powder to have delicious chocolate pancakes as well. Or if you like just the simple basic ones, you can do away with any other flavors.
