I love making pancakes, it's super easy to do from scratch.
Last Sunday, I made these: https://sophiacooking.com/coffee-pancakes/#tasty-recipes-292-jump-target
If you like coffee, then I recommend them! ☕🥞

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Flour, eggs, milk, butter or oil, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and yeast. If you are lactose intolerant use oat milk.
Pancakes must be leavened, thick, and fluffy. If you are using a mix or leaving out the yeast, you are not making pancakes and this grandma is very disappointed in you.
Wrong my G'Ma knew I was vegan and wouldn't poison me with another sentiences' torture.
1 tablespoon of baking powder and apple cider vineger can replace and egg.
I make them from scratch :3
damn, now I want pancakes. Time to go to kerby lane and get some of their pancake mix (it's so good)
Pancakes are literally three ingredients, I got so confused seeing pancake mix at the store at american section. Just mix 1L milk, 500g flour and 2 eggs.
The "complete" pancake mixes can make some sense for people without a stable living condition because they are shelf stable and just require water. I sometimes buy them and donate them to local food shelves.
Flour and milk are pretty much shelf stable if stored right, the only thing that isn't are eggs and those last a month or so.
Milk is shelf stable? Maybe some sort milk can be, but not the type that people typically buy. I've stopped buying it entirely unless we have a specific recipe because it tends to go bad so quickly.
The milk we have at home rn has expiration date till august.
Wtf, it is usually two to three weeks tops when I get milk at the store.
Those will be biscuits where's the leavening?
I'm guessing from "american section" that your definition of a "pancake" is what we'd call a "crepe". If your goal is fluffy, Canadian / American style pancakes doused in butter and maple syrup, that recipe is gonna make nothing of the sort.
Yeah, those are crêpes. Never made american pancakes. Just waffles and those are pretty easy, just need to beat the egg whites.
The recipe is stupid, but seriously worth it. I spent the pandemic force feeding my roommates pancakes twice a week until it was perfect.
You can use whatever Buttermilk you have, but combining the thick Bulgarian with the thinner normal tasted best to the 8 of us.
You want as little time as possible between mixing and applying heat. 70% of baking soda's lift is in the first 3 minutes. The double acting baking powder has an additional acid that's heat activated, so there will be additional lift before the pancake sets.
Wet ingredients
· 240 g Bulgarian buttermilk (1 cup) · 240 g buttermilk (1 cup) · 13 g vanilla (1 Tbsp) · 85 g heated honey (¼ cup) {I microwave the glass jar 30 seconds at a time until it's easy to pour} · 60 g apple cider vinegar (¼ cup) · 100 g eggs (2 large eggs)
Dry ingredients
· 240 g flour (2 cups) {protein % doesn't seem to noticeably change anything} · 14 g double acting baking powder (1 Tbsp) · 7 g baking soda (½ Tbsp) · 2.5 g cinnamon (1 tsp) · 2 g allspice (1 tsp) · 2 g cardamom (1 tsp) · 1 g cloves (½ tsp) · 2 g nutmeg (1 tsp)
Method
- Preheat your griddle to medium-high.
- Do not combine wet and dry ingredients until the griddle is hot.
- Mix dry into wet until you don't see any dry ingredients.
- Immediately spoon or pour onto the hot griddle.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip.
- Cook until golden brown on the second side.
My diabetic mother-in-law moved in with us a few years ago. One random weekend, I made pancakes and she came out and asked to see “the box”. I had no idea what she was referring to and had to ask for clarification. It turned out she wanted to see the pancake mix box to determine the carbohydrate content. We were able to figure it out from the ingredients of the recipe.
I have waffles memorized:
1.75 cups flour, 1tbsp baking powder, 0.25tsp salt, 2 eggs, 1.75 cups milk (creamy oat milk actually is even better), 0.5 cup canola oil.
We do fast for dinner once a week and this is my sons favorite, and my wife can’t eat dairy.
From the better homes and gardens cook book. I have the same exact waffle recipe memorized. Last time I was lazy and neglected to beat the egg whites separately and they came out too dense and nonabsorbent. I always have to relearn that lesson.
potato pancakes are awesome and very easy!! definitely do suggest, especially with applesauce.
siiiigh I know.
worst case u get the video in July, but ill try to get it out sooner.
So long as I know it's coming, I'm willing to wait. I don't want to put too much pressure on you, just a lil bit :3
nono more pressure is good with me.
i....dont do stuff without a deadline, u know....
i made some reasonably good video games in 3 days cuz i put a deadline, but still havent even designed an area for my currently project "bloom" cuz i.... didnt put any deadlines at all.
slightly spicy
oh yes or u out me on a leash then i also do stuffs-
EDIT: hey its me right after posting this comment! can't believe i put that last line but- now its too late! but imma wrap it in a spoiler so peeps dont get cought offguard
Gib recipe that beats out Krusteaz buttermilk, cause I want to but I just can’t pull it
I’ve acquired buttermilk powder thinking that was the missing magicks, but my first shot just wasn’t it
I often keep Krusteaz around (habit from years of 3 small kids), but I don't really care for it. It's too sweet. I'd much rather use Bisquick or Jiffy.
I haven't actually gotten around to trying it yet, but Alton Brown made a video recently where he rolled his own pancake mix. It looked good.
My recipe is simple, you put n eggs, n dl of milk and then mix and add flour until the consistency is reasonable. Add a pinch of salt if you want to feel fancy. Takes 10 min.
I call that Omelette, not pancakes though...
I milked eggs for 10min and covered them in flour. Did I do this right?
Did you do n eggs? You need that to achieve linear egg-complexity
What if I buy the genuinely good premium mix?
I have a 6yo who loves to help. Less steps makes more good.
I guess a little kid having fun makes up for it somewhat, but it'd be cool to make the batter from scratch when they get older.
I don't think I have ever even seen pancake mix. I believe I am safe
I still want to watch you making them :3
I throw them in the air to flip them. But I don't think that is that interesting to warrant a watch party
🥺
I just realised we might not be thinking of the same type of pancakes
One year I bought a mix from the supermarket to be lazy and the pancakes came out shite. Not like it’s complicated.
what if i make my own mix in bulk and then use that mix to make my pancakes?
hmmm...
That photo is nightmare fuel. Source?
Idk, it's a very old picture that I've had for years, but couldn't find the right opportunity to use.
If I see this shit in my yard at 3am I’m opening fire
So am I....
... From my penis.
Yeah, pissing your pants is a common fear response.
Here, take my upvote now gettout!
Good thing I'm sneaky >:3
I’ll give you the decoy box, it has maybe 2 cups of mix left.
I can't even socialize with that 😔
Try it with beer instead of milk! it's sooooo good
