These should really be called "Polar Vortex" pancakes! The hubby bought milk this past Sunday, but with the subzero temperatures and Dominic aka "Mr. Milk" being home all week from school, we ran out of milk last night. Having cold cereal was out of the question this morning for breakfast and I have had eggs several times this week, so I decided to whip up some pancakes with water instead. When I first told the hubby I was going to do that, his response was less than enthusiastic. Yes, he has been home two days in a row (his office is closed). Well, guess what? you really can't tell the difference. My husband was pleasantly surprised, because they were so scrumptious! I tossed some chopped walnuts into his and some chopped pecans into mine. One word - YUMMY!
Ingredients
2 large eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups water
6 tablespoons white sugar
5 tablespoons canola oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups white flour
4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
In a large bowl, put the eggs, water, white sugar, canola oil and vanilla. Stir with a large spoon until well combined. Add the flour, baking powder and salt and mix until just combined. A few lumps here and there is okay. Let it sit five minutes. Heat up an electric griddle or a griddle on the stove. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. If desired, add chopped walnuts or pecans or chocolate chips. This recipe makes eight 6-inch pancakes. Serve warm with butter and maple syrup. Store covered in the fridge.
