What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Food Junkie Favorites: Griddle Golden Pancakes! Dust off that old iron skillet you’ve shoved to the back of the cabinet; you’ll never use the electric griddle again. The benefits? Foods brown beautifully holding the cooking temperature steady, plus cleanup is a snap. Just saying. The results are light, fluffy, and golden brown pancakes that would make your grandma proud.
GRIDDLE GOLDEN PANCAKES
Ingredients:
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Vegetable oil for skillet
Instructions:
Heat an iron skillet on medium to low heat. This may take about 5-8 minutes. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and sea salt in a bowl. Form a well in the center. Add egg, milk, vanilla extract, and butter. Mix until a few lumps remain. Brush vegetable oil evenly onto the skillet. Using a 1/4 cup, drop batter into the oiled skillet. Cook 2-3 minutes on side one. Bubbles will appear on the surface before flipping over. Then cook 1-2 minutes longer. Serve with warm maple syrup and butter.
Now, that is what I could do with right now 🙂

Nice and late – I get up early, but the hubby is a late riser. Think, late morning/early afternoon, after I’ve already taken a nap.

They look exactly like the griddle cakes my grandmother made — in her cast iron skillet. I’ll be trying this recipe for sure.
