Cold Antler Farm PanCAKES

My 5-Minute Recipe For the Fluffiest Snow-Day Pancakes from Scratch!

Thick flapjacks with raspberry drizzle and powdered sugar topping. Substitute ingredients at your own peril and I don’t want to hear about it.

I have been making pancakes on this farm for a long time. Since publishing my original recipe years ago,I have picked up tips from far better bakers than I. I’ve learned to make them thicker, cakier, and better at absorbing all the warm butter and syrup you can handle. These aren’t for every day, darling. But I promise you they can make any snow day feel like a holiday.

I’ll keep this brief. I may be a memoirist, but I know nobody that actually needs to use a recipe wants to read seven paragraphs of backstory. But please, note the following directions because for best results you can’t just “mix it all together and pour on a greased skillet” - at least not if you want them to turn out as advertised!
