    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I make these pancakes ahead of time?

    Yes, you can make these pancakes ahead of time and reheat them later. To do this, cook the pancakes according to the instructions and then let them cool completely. Once they are cool, stack them on a baking sheet and freeze them. When you are ready to eat, thaw the pancakes in the refrigerator overnight or in the microwave for a few minutes. Then, reheat them in a toaster oven or microwave until warmed through.

    What if I don't have buttermilk?

    If you don't have buttermilk for this raspberry pancakes recipe, you can make your own by combining 1 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes before using it in the batter.

    Why do my pancakes turn out flat?

    There are a few reasons why your pancakes might turn out flat. One possibility is that you didn't mix the batter enough. Another possibility is that you didn't cook the pancakes over medium heat. Finally, it's also possible that you didn't add enough baking powder or baking soda to the batter, or that your baking powder was old.

    How can I make my pancakes fluffy?

    There are a few things you can do to make your pancakes fluffy. One way is to use buttermilk in the batter. Baking powder should be active by keeping it stored in an air tight container, and not out of date. Finally, it's also helpful to cook the pancakes over medium heat.

    Why do my pancakes stick to the pan?

    One possibility is that you didn't grease the pan properly. Or that you cooked the pancakes over too high heat. Finally, if your cast iron pan isn't seasoned well, use a non stick pan instead.

    Food Safety

    • Do not use the same utensils on cooked food, that previously touched raw meat
    • Wash hands after touching raw meat
    • Don't leave food sitting out at room temperature for extended periods
    • Never leave cooking food unattended
    • Use oils with high smoking point to avoid harmful compounds
    • Always have good ventilation when using a gas stove
