Pancake Platter with Crispy Bacon
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 2 cups of buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 1 pound of bacon
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of buttermilk, 2 large eggs, and 1/4 cup of melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; lumps are okay.
- Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- While the pancakes are cooking, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
- Arrange the bacon slices on the wire rack and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until crispy.
- Serve the pancakes with the crispy bacon on the side and enjoy!
The history of the Pancake Platter dates back to ancient Greece, where flat cakes made of wheat flour, olive oil, honey, and curdled milk were a popular dish. Over time, this simple recipe evolved into the modern pancake, and the addition of crispy bacon became a beloved accompaniment. In the United States, diners and breakfast joints across the country have perfected the art of serving up fluffy pancakes with a side of perfectly crispy bacon. The best version of this dish can be found in classic American diners, where skilled chefs expertly flip pancakes on griddles and sizzle up bacon to crispy perfection. The key to a great Pancake Platter lies in the balance of sweet and savory flavors, with the pancakes being light and fluffy, and the bacon perfectly crispy. For a unique twist, some chefs incorporate maple syrup-infused bacon or add a hint of cinnamon to the pancake batter. Whether enjoyed at a bustling diner or homemade in your kitchen, the Pancake Platter with a side of crispy bacon is a timeless breakfast classic that continues to delight food lovers around the world.
