OLD FASHIONED BUTTERMILK PANCAKES

Some of you have asked for my pancake recipe... here it is!

This is a great recipe that I found in an old recipe book I picked up at an estate sale. Judging from the weathered look of the recipe card, this was a family favorite. At any given time, I add blueberries, bananas, apples mixed with cinnamon, or chocolate chips to this pancake batter, blueberry being my favorite.

GERMAN OVEN PANCAKES

Some people call these pancakes Dutch Babies, but we discovered them while traveling through Germany in 2018. They are delicious topped with fresh fruit and maple syrup. These pancakes make a great Saturday morning treat, but quick enough for a weekday as well. I hope your family enjoys as much as ours! 

How To Make Every Pancake Look Perfect

Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes, Mom and Memories

Growing up, Saturday mornings were reserved for sleeping late and my Mother's Banana Nut Pancakes. My Mother was a whiz in the kitchen....she did it all. ALL. She baked, fried, roasted, stewed, simmered, braised, creamed, blanched, beat, broiled and boiled. I think I even remember a few poached eggs and a bizarre incident with wild grapes she gathered to make jam for our family. But those Banana Nut Pancakes, they were special. They still bring me feelings of nostalgia and security. They are home. They are Mom.
