Few things are better than starting the day with a delicious batch of pancakes. No matter how you like to eat them, Bisquick makes them easy. Follow these simple steps.
Ingredients
- 2 cups (240 grams) Original Bisquick® mix
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) milk
- 2 eggs
Steps
-
1Heat griddle or skillet over a medium-high heat. If you are using an electric griddle, heat to 375°F (190°C). You know it's hot enough when a few drops of water sprinkled on it sizzle and disappear.
-
2Grease with cooking spray or shortening.Advertisement
-
3Whisk the ingredients together. Be careful not to over mix -- you still want lumps. They leaven the batter as it cooks resulting in fluffier pancakes. Over-mixing the batter will produce thin pancakes.
-
4Pour just under 1/4 cupfuls onto a hot griddle. Cook until edges are dry and bubbles start to form on top.
-
5Flip them over and cook until golden.
-
6Finished. Serve with butter and syrup or whipped cream and fresh berries.

QuestionCan I make pancakes without eggs?Community AnswerYes. Three tbsp of aquafaba (its the liquid in a can of beans ... chickpeas are most recommended) works for each egg called for in the recipe. Or you can make flax eggs if you have ground flaxseed and water (you can simply google how to make that one).

QuestionWhat if I have no Bisquick original mix? Could I make my own?Community AnswerTo make your own pancake mix, 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.

QuestionCan I mix the batter the night before?Community AnswerIt best not to. If you do so, your pancakes won't rise well when you cook them. Let your batter stand for a few minutes and the batter will thicken, then cook your pancakes then and enjoy.

About This Article
To make Bisquick mix pancakes, start by preheating a griddle or skillet over medium-high heat and greasing it with cooking spray or shortening. While that's heating up, whisk together 2 cups of Bisquick, 1 cup of milk, and 2 eggs in a large bowl, leaving some lumps in the mixture so the pancakes are fluffier. Next, pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the heated griddle or skillet. Once bubbles start to form at the top, flip the pancake over and cook it until it's golden on both sides. Finally, repeat with the rest of the batter. To learn how to serve Bisquick mix pancakes, scroll down!
