Family Secret Pancakes!,This is the first recipe I was taught as a child. Not so much a huge secret as it is a lost way of preparation.The extra prep in this recipe involves the egg that few recipes call for. The effect is an amazingly light, pure pancake that doesn’t weigh you down, and could be compared to a crepe in density, but not in actual form!! My favorite way to prepare these is with a stack of 3 pancakes..the first with a small bit of butter…then a generous amount of JIF Peanut Butter! The second pancake has syrup only, ending with a peanut butter-syrup layer on top. Sprinkle with a bit of powdered sugar, and devour!,I have been looking for years for a recipe that mimicked the pancakes at my favorite restaurant. They use a secret family recipe too. These are very very close in flavor and identical in texture. They have that great chewy mouth feel and were super easy to make. I did not thin the batter at all and found it thickened up nicely by letting it sit for a few minutes before folding in the egg whites. This will be the only recipe I make from now on. Don’t think you need to go crazy beating the egg whites. I did it by hand in about thirty seconds with very soft peaks. The bubbles in the whites should still appear somewhat translucent not fully white. 3/4 cup of batter made a nice 8″ cake,to much baking powder
