Directions: |
Directions:1. Add all ingredients except flour into cup. Hint: Allow to warm to room temp for faster cooking.
2. Using a whisk, rolling the handle between your palms like making fire with a stick, whip the ingredients to smooth and well-blended; it takes maybe a minute. Then add in the four as-required, using the same whisk method until the consistency breaks from being “eggy” to more like soupy pancake mix. Again – as flour as required to get the desired consistency. The end result is about 1-1/2 cups of batter.
3. Parallel, heat pan to slightly above medium (experience will dictate), and add one dollop of fresh butter. Wait for the butter to begin to sizzle, then spread out onto the pan to treat the surface. I only do this once.
4. With the mixing cup, pour out roughly a 6-inch diameter puddle. It should spread out nicely to 7 or 8 inches on its’ own. Thicker batters require a little shimmy motion to help spread out the cake.
5. The first pancake cooks slowly; when the topside becomes firm (no visible “liquid-state”), flip the cake. The cooked side will hardly look browned but that’s ok. Periodically check the bottom; it will also brown unevenly – but don’t let it scorch. When ready, dish it for serving or gift it to the dog.
6. Pour the next cake: From here on these will all brown nicely. Depending on size, you should get about 5 or 6 more cakes, enough for one hungry guy. I typically scarf one cake down in the time it takes to cook another. |

Variations
• More Eggs creates thinner more crepe-like cakes
• More flour creates thicker pancakes. Note that there are no leavening agents in this recipe, so thicker pancakes will have a denser consistency and require more time at slightly lower heat to properly cook.
• Whole Milk instead of Yogurt and water; richer texture
• Dollop of Honey to sweeten and brown more evenly
• Malt, similar to Honey + a little malty flavor. Light malts taste better than dark.
• Orange Juice; substitute for “milk” liquid 1:1, but do not go past 25% of total or else the cake quality will degrade.
