Pancakes and Flapjacks

Pancakes are thin, flat and often round cakes made from a batter and cooked either on a hot griddle or a frying pan. Most pancakes are quick breads which use a leavening agent such as baking powder. They are usually served with syrup, jam or fruit. In some places, such as Germany, pancakes are made from potatoes. Although associated with the United States, pancakes were actually an Ancient Greek invention, usually served as a quick breakfast for Greek troops.

How do you make a perfect pancake?

For the best pancakes: * Measure ingredients carefully.Measure flour by lightly spooning it into the measuring cup, then leveling off with the back of a knife. * Don't overbeat the batter. Follow the recipe instructions carefully. If you have time, refrigerate the batter for 30 minutes before you start cooking the pancakes. * Heat the griddle until drops of water dance and evaporate immediately. If your griddle has a temperature control, heat it to 375 degrees F. * Lightly grease the griddle with butter. You only need to use a tablespoon for each batch of pancakes. * Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to pour the batter onto the hot griddle. Pour quickly, keeping at least a 2" space between each pancake. * Let the pancakes cook until the edges start to look dry and bubbles form on the uncooked surface. Don't move the pancakes before this, because they will just break apart. * Use a long handled spatula and carefully slide it under each pancake. Using your wrist, quickly flip the pancakes. Don't worry if your first attempts aren't perfect; you'll get better with practice. * Let the pancakes cook for another minute or two. The second side will not brown as evenly or completely as the first. * Then serve the pancakes immediately! It's better if you can stand by the stove and make the pancakes as your family eats them. They can be kept warm in a 200 degrees F oven, but they're best eaten right out of the pan. * Warm the maple syrup, have the butter softened or melted, and offer a nice selection of syrups, jams, jellies, and sugars. * Enjoy!

Why are the pancakes usually thicker in the middle than on the edges?

Because when you pour batter into the pan, the batter diffuses, or spreads out. While cooking, it thins and the edges are thinnest because diffusion isn't done finding a balance. The middle is still thicker because of the process of diffusion isn't done, so it will be thicker in middle naturally.

Hope this helps! :-)
