From Pancake to Cake Flop!
Well, I am not a great chef.
I have been experimenting with different recipes and flavours, trying to make sure I eat a healthy diet and get all the vitamins I need.
I have not been one to like pancakes much — I find them a bit bland. Recently, I have seen lots of videos on how to make different types of pancakes with different types of fruits.
Last weekend, full of life from a refreshing weekend.
I decided that it was time to make the banana recipe pancake. It was so simple — just banana, eggs, flour, and milk. I would just mix it all together, and there you go.
However, it was not as simple as I thought. My pancakes seemed rather gooey and banana gooey and definitely not light, fluffy pancakes.
However, I now feel that I am poised to make a banana cake. If this was a baked cake, it would have tasted very nice.
So, lesson learned: measure out ingredients and follow the recipe carefully.
This situation was not that dire, as I now feel I have the skills to make a cake, as the pancake was almost a cake!
Problem solved.
Pancakes will now be made into cake! I will find a recipe and not just go with what I fleetingly saw on YouTube.
What about you. Do you follow recipes or just go with the flow like me?
Here the recipe I will use next time:
350g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 very ripe bananas
2 medium eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
250ml whole milk
butter, for frying
Hi I am Charlie —
I love to travel and skydive. So far, my skydiving experience has been limited to a simulator in London, but I hope to take to the real skies soon. I regularly play football and go to the gym.
I am a health enthusiast. I’ve been an Arsenal FC supporter for the last 20 years! From when I was 10!
Like to play games online.
This is Charlie NCR! I’m glad to be here and it is nice to meet you.
