Skinny Pancakes Formerly Known As Maine Wedding Pancakes Food

MAINE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, flour, milk, salt, and nutmeg until well combined. Batter may still be slightly lumpy. (The batter may be made a day ahead and refrigerated overnight.)
• Melt butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Pour batter into pan, and transfer to oven. Bake until pancake is golden brown and puffy, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer pancake to serving plate, and dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve immediately.

PUFFY MAINE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place eggs, flour, milk, salt, and nutmeg in a medium bowl; whisk until combined. Batter may still be slightly lumpy. The batter may be made a day ahead and chilled overnight.
• For each pancake, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a 4-inch crepe pan or ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Using a ladle, pour one-third of the batter into the very hot pan; transfer pan or skillet immediately to the oven. Bake until pancake is golden brown and very puffy, about 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar; serve immediately.

SKINNY PANCAKES

Steps:

• Blend cottage cheese, eggs, flour, coconut oil, and vanilla extract together in a blender until batter is smooth.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

GRANDMA'S SWEDISH THIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine eggs, milk and oil in a 2-quart mixing bowl.
• Mix well with wire whisk.
• In small bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt.
• Mix well.
• Using wire whisk, mix flour mixture into egg mixture.
• Let rest for about 10-15 minutes.
• Lightly grease skillet. I like to use a non-stick saute pan. My husband uses a cast iron skillet. I think both work fine.
• Preheat skillet over medium high heat.
• Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto hot skillet.
• With a circular wrist motion, swirl pan until batter is evenly covering bottom of pan.
• Cook until edges just start to brown.
• Carefully flip pancake over with a thin spatula. (I like to use a wide one).
• Cook turned crêpe about 20 seconds or until lightly browned.
• Slide onto plate to cool.
• Continue cooking remaining batter using same method.
• Serve hot by spreading with butter and syrup. Or Lingonberry preserves. Or sprinkled with powdered sugar. Then roll up like a crepe and enjoy.

SKINNY PANCAKES, FORMERLY KNOWN AS MAINE WEDDING PANCAKES

Steps:

• 0. (Instead of sifting the flour before measuring, I just fluff it up by lifting and dropping the flour so it's loose, and then takes 2 cups.) 1. Sift flour, sugar, baking soda, salt into a bowl. 2. Beat eggs until thick (about 20-30 sec) 3. Add milk, lemon juice, and melted butter. 4. Add the dry ingredients and mix (but only until its uniform, not longer). Pour a small amount of oil into the pan. I use corn oil. Spread it around by tilting the pan. You only need enough to barely cover the pan and oil will become quite thin as it is heated so easy to spread around by tilting the panPour about 1/4-1/3 cup of batter onto a crepe type frying pan and spread it by tilting pan until it fills the bottom (about 6-7 inches in diameter). I use a relatively thing stainless frying/omlette pan that can be cooled and heated readily, and its is light so that it's easy to spread the butter. Pancakes also don't stick at all to this surface. Cook until reasonably browned on the down side (about 30-45 seconds). Loosen all around with a thin flexible spatula and then flip. Cook second side about 15 seconds. Pancakes can be held in oven (about 225) on cookies sheets until there are enough for two per person. Cook keeps cooking and eats when he/she is done. Excellent with warm maple syrup, sliced strawberries, jam, and perhaps (if you happen to like it) Nutella.
