Description

Pancakes that look like pancakes, but taste like bread pudding. Heaven.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 1-½ Tablespoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 7 ounces, weight (about 7 Slices) Firm White Bread, Crusts Trimmed, Cut Into 1/2-inch Cubes
  • 2 cups Whole Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • 2 whole Large Eggs, Beaten
  • 5 Tablespoons Butter, Melted, Divided Use
  • 1 whole Granny Smith Apple, Sliced (optional)

Preparation

Stir flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in small bowl to blend.

Place bread in large bowl and add milk, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Let stand until bread is very soft and beginning to fall apart, stirring mixture occasionally, about 15 minutes. Add flour mixture to bread mixture and blend. Mix in eggs and 3 tablespoons melted butter. Let batter stand 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 150°F. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Drop batter by 1/4 cupfuls into skillet, then turn down heat to medium low. Cook pancakes until bubbles form on the top surface and bottoms are brown, about 2 minutes. Turn pancakes over; cook until cooked through and brown on bottom, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer to baking sheet. Place baking sheet in a warm oven to keep them warm. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to skillet as needed.

If you’d like, you can cut up an apple into thin slices and throw into the same pan you cooked the pancakes in. (Save on dishes!) Add a little butter, cinnamon and a dash of sugar and salt and toss. Cook for 2-4 minutes, or until soft.

Serve pancakes with syrup, a dollop of butter and sauteed apples. Yum!

They really taste like french toast! It hit both of my cravings in one go.

I was careless and forgot to cut of the crusts (don’t do this), and so I pulsed them in the blender a couple of times. They still turned out great, but I’d like to try it the correct way.

Mixed in the cut apples with the syrup to make a fruit syrup – awesome!

I will make this many more times — I love the idea (and the taste).

I thought this was just ok. We didn’t think it tastes like bread pudding just pancakes. Possibly adding some different flavoring would improve it?

I made this Christmas morning and we all loved it. It tastes like pancakes AND french toast. I doubled the recipe and it made enough for us to have it again tomorrow. The recipe yield is accurate.
