Lazy No-Flip Pancake
Plan B for those who hate standing by the stove with a flipper.
Listen — I love pancakes. But I confess, I am a little fussy about them. I don’t care how much time I may have on my hands — I’m just not a patient flipper.
And I don’t like pancakes from a mix because they always have a weird chemical taste to me. And I’m not a big fan of being stuck by the stove waiting to flip their persnickety little fickle selves.
You know what I mean — you leave them for a second to pour a coffee and the next thing you know the smoke detector is shrieking. Now you have pancakes with one burnt side and the other side is doughy.
Julia Child would mock me.
And even when things are going great — you have- a -pancake- relay -race -to -the- table- to- feed- hungry- people- who- hoover- down- all- the- good- ones- -and- leave- you- one- skimpy -piece- of- bacon- and-the- last- two- pancakes. (Which as we all know — the first two and the last two just aren’t the best.)
It really makes you reconsider who you keep on your Christmas list.
So. I did what all lazy cooks do. I looked for a simpler Plan B.
