FOOD INSPIRATION FRIDAYS; PANCAKES

-

Hello TTB Fam welcome to another food inspiration fridays session today we are talking about how to make pancakes.
pancake is a popular meal though not indigenous to nigerians its worth trying.  It contains all the necessary nutrients for a good breakfast and will kerp you filled up!!!  Below is our recipe on how to make pancakes!!!

MIX DRY INGREDIENTS


Begin by mixing together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, ½ tablespoon baking powder and ½ teaspoon salt. To give your pancakes that something special, try adding  ½ teaspoon of cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg or a ½ cup of chopped nuts to the dry mix.
TIP
Fresh baking powder is key for fluffy pancakes. If your baking powder is older than six months, toss it, and if you're unsure, test it by adding a little water. Baking powder should bubble and fizz furiously when combined with water.

Step 2

MIX WET INGREDIENTS



Lightly whisk one egg. Then whisk 1 ¾ cup milk and 2 tablespoons of melted butter into the egg. Obviously, whole milk and butter will make the most flavorful pancakes, but you can opt for a lower fat milk or oil in place of the butter if necessary.
TIP
A couple drops of vanilla or almond extract can also be a fun addition to your wet ingredients.

Step 3

MIX DRY & WET INGREDIENTS


Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir just until everything is moistened. A few lumps are okay, but make sure there are no pockets of dry flour on the bottom of the bowl.
TIP
Over stirring the batter will create a pancake that is more rubbery and less fluffy.

Step 4

HEAT THE OIL


Add a little oil to a non-stick or cast iron skillet. Heat the oiled skillet over medium-low heat for about five minutes.
TIP
To test the heat in the skillet, add one drop of the pancake batter. If it sizzles around the edges, it’s ready to go.


Step 5

ADD THE BATTER TO THE SKILLET


Use an ice cream scooper, measuring cup or small ladle to deliver the same amount of batter to the skillet for each pancake. This allows for more uniform-sized pancakes. Use the back of the scooper or measuring cup to gently spread the batter into a circular shape.
Step 6

COOK THE PANCAKES


Let the pancakes cook, untouched, for about three minute or until bubbles form on the surface of the batter. At this point, feel free to sprinkle in your favorite goodies, like fresh berries, sliced bananas or chocolate chips. When the bubbles no longer fill back in with wet batter after bursting, it's time to flip.
Step 7

FLIP THE PANCAKES


Carefully flip the pancake and cook on the second side for about two minutes or until golden brown.
TIP
Use the first few pancakes as "test cakes" for the heat level of the skillet. Adjust the heat up or down until your pancakes are perfectly browned by the time they're ready to flip.

Step 8

FINISH COOKING & ENJOY


Depending on the size of your skillet, you should be able to cook two to three pancakes at a time. Repeat the process until all the batter is used up, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.

This recipe will make about eight to nine large, four-inch diameter pancakes. Cooked pancakes can be kept warm in an oven preheated to its lowest setting.

The Sojourner's Diary: ALMA GEMELA(SOUL MATE)

The Sojourner's Diary: ALMA GEMELA The Spanish word for soul mate stands for "alma gemela". You know, I've always wondered. It has always had me bothered. That question. Simple as it may sound, it is a question that has troubled my mind relentlessly. How many soul mates do we get in a lifetime?  Have you ever met someone and out of the blue, y'all connect and a bond is forged? You spend moments together and moments turn into hours, hours into days, days into weeks and weeks into months and months into years, years into more years, you get the picture. Everything is fine is the beginning and then the misunderstandings begin and then you start to see how different y'all really are and then your three hours of calls become three minutes of awkwardness with so many words in your minds but none of them said. You then start to wonder, "was this really my soulmate or did I get it all wrong?" Are we even meant to be together? Eventually, you start to let eac...
