I actually got this recipe from Better Homes & Gardens, but had to change it for my husband and daughter, as one is lactose intolerant, and the other allergic to milk. But both love pancakes, and I hate boxed mixes. When I discovered this recip... More

Thanks for sharing this. I love to see recipes that someone has altered and made even better.


This sounds great. As part of a two-person household, we often don't have milk, as it tends to go bad before we finish it. I will have to try this.


These all sound good


Well you weren't kidding. These were easy and delicious. I don't know why, but I always mess up when I make pancakes, but I had great success with these. My boy loved them Thanks!


I made these today for breakfast. They were really good, but I did have some questions about them:

What do you use to grease your skillet?? I use PAM spray but they don't seem to brown when I use it. Also, when I tried butter today, they turned out all floppy and greasy and gross.

Also, mine turned out too thin and didn't have any dimension although I followed the recipe perfectly.


However, I thought that they were really good considering that there was no milk!! Thanks for the great recipe considering my flunks listed above. ;D

I rarely use anything. I have a really great teflon pan that doesn't need spray.
Usually, on the recipe, if it looks too thin, I add just a little more flour to thicken it up. I like thicker pancakes, but my family likes the thinner ones, so it depends on my mood. You can alter it slightly and it won't change the flavor!


Sexypiratepants, 2 person household, milk goes bad! I live in a 1 person household and 4 L doesn't even last a week.

dragonflylady13, nice recipe, it tasted good:) I added an extra egg to it and jam and icing sugar when it was done:)
