5 Old Fashioned Pancake Recipes You Will Love (2024)

I’m sharing my favorite 5 old fashioned pancake recipes you will love today, I promise! Let’s picture a brunch for a school graduation, with the tables decorated with bowls of every color filled with toppings for pancakes, crepes or waffles. It could be a party, a brunch or evenbreakfast for dinner. My daughter Heidi and her husband, Nate cook a huge brunch every Sunday and whoever drops by is always welcome. You know what I mean, there is always enough food for everyone. There could be 15 or 30 people, we never know. But the food is made from scratch and you can smell the yummy food as you walk throughthe front door. You can keep your pancakes warm in one of these: Norpro Tortilla Pancake KeeperI purchased two of these because I have a big family. I love fixing breakfast!

Some of these recipes will need a blender, a mixing bowl, hand mixer, dough whisk or spoon to mix the ingredients. You can use a griddle, a crepe pan or cast iron pan. So start thinking which recipe you want to make first, don’t forget the butter and whipped cream in some cases. You know you can use the whipped cream in the cans but there is nothing quite like fresh cream whipped with sugar and vanilla added.

Whole Wheat Pancakes

Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups freshly ground hard white wheat

3/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
Instructions:
Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth. I use approximately 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake and cook each side until golden brown. These take a bit longer to cook because of the whole wheat, but it’s worth it, I promise. Cook these on a hot greased griddle and cook each side as you do any pancake. These are delicious!
