ALTON BROWN'S FLUFFY WHOLE WHEAT PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix together all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together all wet ingredients. (I just melted the butter slightly before adding it in with the eggs and buttermilk.).
• Add the wet stuff to the dry stuff and mix just until batter comes together. Do NOT mix smooth. Set aside batter to rest for 5 minutes.
• * Heat an electric griddle to 350 degrees or place a nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat.
• *Test the griddle by flicking water on it. If the water dances across the surface, you're good to go.
• * Rub down the griddle with a little butter or spray with nonstick spray.
• Ladle 1 scoop of batter onto the griddle. (Batter will be thick! Just spread it out with the bottom of your ladle or the back of a spoon.) Cook until bubbles form in the batter and bottom is golden, approximately three minutes. Flip and cook until the second side is golden, another a minute or so. Adjust the heat as necessary as you go along. Serve while hot!

DUTCH BABY PANCAKE

• Put 1 tablespoon butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and heat the skillet in the oven for 10 minutes. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and set aside to cool slightly.
• Pulse together the flour, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Add the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter, and blend the batter until smooth and frothy, 30 to 45 seconds.
• Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and immediately pour the batter into the center. Bake for 20 minutes; do not open the oven while baking. The Dutch baby will puff up in the center and the edges will be dark and crispy.
