In one of the blogs/newsletter's I read, the mention of
The BEST-EVER-Pancakes was the topic-
and the author referred to :
"One morning I came home to find that the vegan teen
had made a big batch of these, which told me two things:
They were vegan and they were easy to make.
What I didn't expect is that they would taste so good.
Honestly, I have no idea why there are eggs and milk in pancakes after eating these.
They are lighter than conventional pancakes,
and easily get the perfect crispy edge that can be elusive with more cake-y cakes.
This has been the family's go-to pancake recipe every since."

And - speaking ofPANCACKES- one of the most amazing-as in-Change-your-Life- sorta-Pancakes, I had in Corktown- Detroit recently- were served with what was described as "Smoked-Maple-Syrup" - a thing I'd not considered possible before this encounter...

What they did I was told- was once the Chef had the smoker going- he inserted a vessel, containing said Maple Syrup- and let the smoke permeate the Syrup.
Not sure what kind of vessel he used- but- the net effect- was remarkable.

Be sure to check-out Lady of The House- when you visit Detroit , and lemme know
if your life has changed since eating Pancakes with Smoked Maple Syrup!

Hi,

Five years ago, I learned to make German Apple Pancakes from Chef Rita at DankHaus.

I will occasionally make the German Apple Pancake from Walker Brothers, but this is a fast weeknight meal.

I took a picture as it emerged from the oven, because the height collapses rather quickly:



At the table with some butter and maple syrup:



AFter this, I am down to six eggs. Fortunately to paraphrase Elaine from Seinfeld, "This dish is egg worthy."

“We recognize Aunt Jemima’s origins are based on a racial stereotype," Quaker Oats said, adding that the move is an effort "toward progress on racial equality."
