what can i add to my pancakes to make them even better?!?

Answer 1

fruits.

Answer 2

So far the best pancakes in my home are the orange pancakes. I just use the following recipe and sub OJ for the milk, add a sprinkle of vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg to my liking. This also works for the cheating moments when using a box mix.
They came out light, fluffy and full of flavor.

INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
DIRECTIONS
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 to the desired size. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

Answer 5

Finely chopped apple bits from a fresh apple and Cinnamon is very good or you can finely chop fresh banana and add that to the mix. of course blueberries are good too!

Answer 6

depends on what you like. You could try adding strawberries,blueberries,bananas,raspberries,and lots of other fruits that you might like. Alot of people also like using chocolate chips in their pancakes. Try different items and see what you like best. Good luck!

Answer 7

Apple, with or without the skin. Sometimes I just dice it fine with a knife, sometimes I use the food processor and sometimes I grate it with the grater, medium fine (the same side you would do cheese with, not the fine side you would use for a lemon). Just stir it into the batter.

Answer 8

Cinamon

Answer 9

I freeze really ripe (almost black) bananas then thaw and mash a half and add it to the batter. By the time they are that ripe, they have developed lots of sugar.

Answer 10

Why not add berries to the mix? Or raisins.
