Yogurt pancakes

I was on the net the other day searching for a yogurt pancake recipe to make for tea time and I stumbled upon this vanilla yogurt pancakes recipe from baked bree. I immediately tried the recipe, but had made several small changes to it and I love the result. The pancakes were light and fluffy, and very delicious. My kids ate most of the pancakes and they loved the pancakes very much.

Ingredients:
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup cake flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1 small tub of yogurt ( I used Nestle's fat free mix berries yogurt, 135 grams tub)
1 tablespoon of honey

In a bowl, whisk together all purpose flour, cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add in the rest of the ingredients and mix well.

Heat a lightly oiled non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter and cook until surface of pancakes have some bubbles, about 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the underside. Serve warm.

Oatmeal pancakes

I am supposed to do grocery shopping since last weekend but had not been able to do so... and as the result, barang dapur dah banyak habis and I end up coking with whatever things available in our pantry. Siapa kata duduk rumah ada banyak free time? Seriously, that is soooo not true. Bila dah ada kat rumah tu, ada je benda nak buat. Nak menyapu pun tak tau berapa kali sehari, nampak je ada habuk la, mainan bersepah la etc.

Ok, berbalik kepada cerita asal.. sebab barang dapur dah banyak habis, so saya pon search la untuk  resipi yang guna oatmeal, sebab oatmeal memang ada kat rumah. Lepas tu tanya dekat Amirul pagi tadi sebelum dia pergi sekolah nak makan oatmeal porridge ke nak makan oatmeal pancake for breakfast. Dia pilih pancake. So, hasil dari men'google' saya jumpa resipi ni dari website smitten kitchen.

Kalau nak tengok resipi asal bolehlah refer to the original entry from smitten kitchen's website. Saya dah ubah sikit-sikit cara-cara buat oatmeal pancake tu to make it easier for myself. This is how I made mine:

Bahan-bahan:

1 cawan oat (saya guna quaker quickcook oatmeal, pek yang kaler biru) - dikisar

1 cawan tepung gandum

2 sudu besar gula

2 sudu kecil baking powder

1/2 sudu kecil garam

3 sudu butter, dicairkan (saya letak dalam cawan kecil dan masukkan dalam microwave for 30 seconds)

1 1/4 cawan susu (saya guna susu HL)

3/4 cawan oatmeal, dimasak bersama 1 1/2 cawan air dan sedikit garam (saya campur semua bahan-bahan ni dan masak dalam microwave for 2.5 minutes)

1 sudu besar madu

2 biji telur saiz besar

Campur semua bahan-bahan kat atas tu dan kacau sehingga sebati. Panaskan kuali dan masukkan sedikit minyak + butter. Masak pancake macam biasa.

Pancake ni sedap dihidangkan panas-panas. Saya suka sangat resipi ni sebab rasa lebih sihat (sebab guna oatmeal, walaupun tak berapa nak sihat sebab masak guna minyak dan butter).

Pancake ni sedap sangat, lain daripada rasa pancake yang biasa saya masak. Tak percaya bolehlah cuba :)

The simplest pancakes

Pancakes are really easy to make. Whenever my kids wanted to eat some, chances are, most of the ingredients are readily available in the fridge.


Pancakes recipe:
1 mug of self raising flour
1 mug of fresh milk
a pinch of salt
1 whole egg


Mix all the ingredients together and cook using a non-stick pan. (use a drop of butter if you want your pancakes to be slightly buttery, or skip the butter for pancakes that looks like the one you eat at McDonald for breakfast). - The above pancakes, as per the picture were without any butter.


Note: 

1. Use self raising flour if you want your pancakes to look plummer than the ordinary 'lempeng'. 
2. It doesn't really matter what size your mug is, so long as the amount of flour equal to the amount of milk. You can also measure using a bowl instead.

Enjoy!
