mac wannabe pancakes

how lovely to start the day with macdonalds pancakes...well..except when i woke up its already past 11am..so i decided to search for a hotcakes receipe...this is the end result.

Pancakes with orange syrup. YUM! :P




so i found this reciepe its truely good but not really like macdonalds per se.. but i think making good pancakes boils down to heat and timing...get it too hot and u wont get the color right..flip it too fast or slow could ruin ur pancakes.





anyway try this reciepe out..the cakes are nice and fluffy and asborbs all the maple or orange syrup u could possibly pour onto it mmmmmmhmmm....!! haha


ENJOY!


-I wannabe Mac Pancake mix-
1/3 carbonated beverage (lemon-lime/soda/coke/7up etc...)
1 egg
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon oil
1.5 cups biscuit mix


Prepare biscuit mix:
- 1 cup flour
-1.5 teaspoon baking soda
-0.5 teaspoon salt
-1 tablespoon shortening (i use butter)

mix until well incorporated.
==================================
1) mix biscuit mix + salt+ sugar + egg + beverage into a bowl
2) use a mixer and blend on high for afew seconds (dont overbeat) texture should be milkshake like...add more soda if its too dry.
3) let stand for 10 mins before using batter

* heat pan on low heat and pour batter in, wait till bubbles appear on the sides, flip over and let it cook for a 2 mins or so.
(really you'll get the hang of it...how and when to flip it)
** i usually use soda water or 7up but i've heard pple using other types of can drinks..though not advisable.


=orange syrup=
- 1 orange
- 3/4 cup water
- 5 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tabespoon honey
1) peel orange skin and leave 2 or 3 strips aside
2) slice orange into small slices
3) in a small pan, bring water to a boil and add ur sugar and orange slice in (keep stirring)
4) wait for syrup to thicken slightly then add the orange slices and honey
5) keep stirring until syrup comes to the consistence that you desire.
6) pour over pancakes.


Thanx for viewing my blog u guys...if any hahah!
