Eggless Pancakes

This blog would not exist if it weren’t for my mother whom I fondly call “Amma”, not because she gave birth to me but because the reason of making me a food geek. My mom was the first of my many food idols. From her, I gained a deep inspiration and abiding love for magically transforming raw ingredients into mouthwatering feasts. She could easily prepare a feast for a big crowd with a broad smile in her face. This explains why lunch/dinner parties can’t hold a flame to my mom.

My fondest childhood memories are of me shadowing my mom around the kitchen as she finely used to prepare dinner after a long tiresome day. I mastered the art of lingering next to her chopping board when she was cutting my favorite foods. I’d sigh, roll my eyes casually tell her that I am direly hungry that my stomach was digesting itself. Despite of her being super hungry, she would first feed me with a smile that I greedily used to gobble up.

These days I smile when I find my kids secretly trail her in the kitchen when she prepares family meals. Here’s wishing HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to my AMMA.

Nothing says Mother’s day like sleeping in and breakfast in bed! If your kids are like mine, they wake you up at dawn are full of energy and ready to start the day. Although this early rising motivates to get a good head start for the day, it definitely is always a treat to sleep in. What a better way to wake you up with a cup of hot filter coffee and warm breakfast in bed made by your adorable kids and loving husband. This was my perfect Mother’s day! They made some delicious pancakes with warm butter and topped with maple syrup. I clearly remember this amazing sweet smell.

These pancakes are

Fluffy

Light

Tender

Perfectly sweet

Hearty

Satisfying

Simple

And Fast.

So here’s the recipe for Eggless pancake.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!

Ingredients:

All-purpose flour	1 Cup
Unsalted butter	2 Tbsps.
Baking powder	1 1/2 Tsp.
Baking soda	½ Tsp.
Salt	½ Tsp.
Buttermilk	1 Tbsp.
Sugar	3 Tsps.
Milk	1 Cup

Method:

In a medium sized bowl, combine all the dry ingredients first.

 Then add milk, buttermilk and melted butter.

 Mix the contents really well.

 Now heat a griddle on medium heat. When the griddle is nice and hot, add a little nonstick spray to your griddle and pour the 1/4th cup of batter.

 Pancakes are ready to flip when we see bubbles in about 2 minutes if cooking on medium heat.

 Let the other side brown, then transfer to a plate and serve with warm butter and syrup!

Tips:

Transfer the batter to a large cup; it will be easier to pour.

If you think the batter is too thick, add just a little bit of milk to thin it out.
