Here is a very special recipe in our family, passed down from my husbands grandmother, to my Dad (FIL) and Ma, and they passed it on to me (along with Grandma's big ol' electric griddle!) these are DElicious!
6 Eggs
4 Cups o' Buttermilk
1/4 Cup Salad Oil (any)
1 Cup Cream (half n half)
1 package of yeast (little single packages-don't know measurement here)
4 Cups Flour
2 Tablespoons Baking Powder
2 Tablespoons Sugar
2 Tablespoons Baking Soda
1 Tablespoon Salt
Make this in a large tupperware type bowl with lid. Beat eggs, add Buttermilk, oil, cream and yeast ~ stir well. Add remaining ingredients, and stir well until all mixed up :) Store in fridge, stirring every 24 hours. Best if made up a few days ahead of time, and set in fridge....stirring each day....and my Dad n Ma make it up 2 weeks ahead of time-for the best flavor! :) (and yes, everytime I get this outta the fridge, there is a grey to black tint on top--that is the yeast, just stir it up well, and put back in the fridge!)
This is an EASY way to have a homemade yummy breakfast ready to go, just heat that griddle, and you're set! :) ENJOY! This recipe makes quite a few pancakes.....great for the holiday season, when we have lots of folks around!
