One Cup Pancakes Recipes

PANCAKES I

Steps:

• Preheat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Make a well in the center. In a separate bowl, beat together egg, milk and oil. Pour milk mixture into flour mixture. Beat until smooth.
• Pour or scoop the batter onto the hot griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

ONE-CUP PANCAKES

Steps:

• Tip the flour and a pinch of salt into a bowl. Make a well in the centre and pour in the milk and egg. Whisk together, starting in the middle, to create a smooth batter. It should be the thickness of double cream.
• Heat a little of the butter and oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add a sixth of the batter to the pan, quickly swirling it so there are no holes. Fry on one side for 1-2 mins then flip over and cook for a further 1 min. Keep on a plate, covered, in a warm oven. Repeat with the remaining batter to make six pancakes in total. Serve with sugar and lemon, if you like.

EASY BASIC PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees; have a baking sheet or heatproof platter ready to keep cooked pancakes warm in the oven. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, butter (or oil), and egg. Add dry ingredients to milk mixture; whisk until just moistened (do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine).
• Heat a large skillet (nonstick or cast-iron) or griddle over medium. Fold a sheet of paper towel in half, and moisten with oil; carefully rub skillet with oiled paper towel.
• For each pancake, spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter onto skillet, using the back of the spoon to spread batter into a round (you should be able to fit 2 to 3 in a large skillet).
• Cook until surface of pancakes have some bubbles and a few have burst, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and keep warm in oven. Continue with more oil and remaining batter. (You'll have 12 to 15 pancakes.) Serve warm, with desired toppings.
• BUTTERMILK: In step 1, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to dry mixture. In step 2, replace the milk with low-fat buttermilk.
• YOGURT: In step 1, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to dry mixture. In step 2, replace the milk with 2/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt and 1/3 cup milk.
• WHOLE-GRAIN WITH YOGURT: In step 1, replace the all-purpose flour with 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour, 1/4 cup each cornmeal and wheat germ, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. In step 2, replace the milk with 2/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt and 1/3 cup milk.

BUDDY'S ONE-CUP PANCAKES

Steps:

• Fill the cup with the flour and tip into a large bowl. Fill the same cup with milk and pour that into the bowl too, then crack in the egg. Whisk everything together until it's nice and smooth.
• Place a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat. Once hot, add a small knob of butter then, once the butter has melted and starts to sizzle, add large spoonfuls of batter to the pan - you'll need to cook your pancakes in batches.
• Wait for little bubbles to form on the surface of the pancakes, about 1 to 2 minutes, then use a fish slice to flip them over to cook for another 1 to 2 minutes on the other side, or until golden again.
• Carefully wipe out the pan with a ball of kitchen paper, then add another small knob of butter and cook the next batch.
• Serve the pancakes right away with your favourite toppings - I like a bit of fruit and a drizzle of honey.

GOOD OLD FASHIONED PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg and melted butter; mix until smooth.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

HOW TO MAKE PANCAKES FOR ONE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt.
• In another bowl, beat the egg and then whisk in the milk, vanilla and melted butter.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated. If the batter seems too thick, add more of the milk, a little at a time.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
• Ladle about 3/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet to make a pancake.
• Cook until bubbles break the surface of the pancake, and the underside is golden brown, about 3 minutes.
• Flip with a spatula and cook about 1 minute more on the second side. Remove from the pan and place on a plate.
• Repeat until all the batter is used up.
• Serve with your favorite toppings: butter, syrup, fruit or any other topping you desire.

EASY RECIPE FOR RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a large mixing bowl.
• In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the ricotta cheese and mix well. Next, stir in the milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla.
• Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stir until just combined. Don't over mix the batter because the pancakes will end up tough,
• Heat a non-stick frying pan over low-medium heat. Working in batches, melt a tablespoon of butter at a time in the frying pan. Note: If the butter has turned a dark brown in the pan before adding the batter, the pan is too hot. Turn down the heat, use a paper towel to wipe away the burnt butter, and start again.
• Add a ⅓ cup of batter per pancake (or more if you want bigger pancakes) at a time to the frying pan.
• Cook for about 3 minutes or until you see bubbles appear on top and the top looks a little dry, flip and cook the other side. Cook on the other side for about 1 - 2 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a serving plate. Repeat with the remaining batter until all cooked. Serve immediately with either fresh lemon juice and sugar or maple syrup.
