That you’re willing to share? I have made damn near every pancake recipe I could find in the internet and none of them were really fantastic. I don’t know what’s missing. They just seem… blah?

I’m looking for a fantastic, basic as hell pancake recipe. If you have one. And you’re willing to share.

I will repay the entire internet in like… a week when I make the strawberry/watermelon jam-filled cupcakes.

    Oh! I love these! I made them all the time as a kid! (I’m in Tennessee.)

    I actually adore buttermilk. Well, I adore the way it acts when I cook with it, and the flavor it imparts. I do not love the smell even a little, but that’s the price we pay for buttermilk! Thanks for your contribution.

      I’ll do about a quart of buttermilk in recipes around the holidays, but I’ve been leaning hard on my sour cream mixture.

      I increased the amount to 3Tb per cup of water for my lemon pound cake, and I’m thinking about adding more. Testing the possibilities before summer hits and I bake a million loaves for when I go visiting.

        I love this detail. I will do either based on the recipe because the boyfriend and I don’t eat sour cream (by itself) so either I use that tub up in recipes, or it risks going bad. Same as the buttermilk! I have had a pound cake with sour cream and that was divine.

          I make a German chocolate cake once a year for my partner’s birthday that uses an absolutely horrifying amount of sour cream. 12/10 would bake more if it wasn’t such a pain in the ass.
