Guest guest Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Hi All I'm attempting to make some vegan pancakes so bought some Buckwheat Pancake Mix (so far so good). Under the instructions for Milk and Egg Pancakes it refers to mixing the pancake mix with 'melted or liquid shortening'. Not being much of a cook at the best of times i have no idea what melted or liquid shortening is. Suffice to say my first attempt at making pancakes has ended in complete failure. I wondered if anyone could point me in the right decision. Thanks alot Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Hi Linda >Suffice to say my first attempt at making pancakes has>ended in complete failure.>I wondered if anyone could point me in the right>decision. First question is where are you? I could give you my favourite pancake recipe, but if you're in the US, you would get very confused as pancakes in the UK are very different to pancakes in the US! If you're in the UK, then I'll sort out the recipe I use and post it.... BB Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Hi Linda I would abandon the pancake mix. Pancakes are fairly straightforward. Hopefully Peter will answer this as he is a pancake wizard and has thrown many a pancake party with great success :-) Jo - " linda galvin " <ljgukuk Thursday, July 13, 2006 11:51 AM Re:Making Vegan Pancakes-Can anyone help? > > Hi All > > I'm attempting to make some vegan pancakes so bought > some Buckwheat Pancake Mix (so far so good). > > Under the instructions for Milk and Egg Pancakes it > refers to mixing the pancake mix with 'melted or > liquid shortening'.

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Well Jo i don't want to waste the mix. I'd rather use it this time and then next time i'm making pancakes i can have a bit of a rethink. Linda --- jo <jo.heartwork wrote: > Hi Linda > > I would abandon the pancake mix.

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Hi Linda OK then - here goes Pancake Recipe (adapted from Eva Batts Vegan Cooking)... To make 8 pancakes: 1 fl oz soya milk 4 1/2 oz flour 3 rounded tablespoons soya flour (some people put a pinch of salt in, but I prefer it without). Basically, stick all the ingredients into a blender, and whizz them up until you have a thin but smooth batter (if you don't have a blender, just mix them by hand - that's what I do). Fry in a frying pan (with a little oil to stop them sticking)... Yep, it's really that simple - 3 ingredients mixed up and fried - no need for any pre-made batter. I personally like them with either lemon juice & sugar, or soya ice cream & maple syrup... but you can add pretty much anything you think might work :-) BB Peter - " linda galvin " <ljgukuk Thursday, July 13, 2006 2:53 PM Re: Re:Making Vegan Pancakes-Can anyone help? > Hi Peter > > Thanks for that. > It would be great to get the recipe > I'm in the UK. > > Linda > > --- Peter Kebbell <metalscarab wrote: > > > Hi Linda > > > > >Suffice to say my first attempt at making pancakes > > has > > >ended in complete failure. > > >I wondered if anyone could point me in the right > > >decision. > > > > First question is where are you?

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 Hi Peter Thanks very much for that. Blimey it is simple isn't it. I suppose i expected it to be far more complicated than that for some reason. Peter as i don't want to waste the pre-made batter i bought what's the best way to use this up. Now that i have your recipe i won't need to buy pre-made batter in the future. On the box it says add 3 tablespoons melted or liquid shortening but i have no idea what this is. Thanks for all your help.

I've never used pancake batter - I really have no idea, but maybe someone else here will! I also don't know what shortening is... nearest I can think of is short-bread, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be using that in pancakes!

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I'm sad to say Tara that it just turned into a gooey mess.I of course didn't add liquid shortening as it said on the packet. This is because i never knew what it was. Now i know what it is i definitely won't be using it as it's very bad for you.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Peter has been good enough to post his pancake recipe Tara have you seen it? If you didn't catch it when he posted it just look through the recent messages on this topic and you'll come across it.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 My mum and dad used to cook pastry with a mixture of lard and white vegetable fat :-[ Yuk. Jo - Tara Van Nostrand Saturday, July 15, 2006 7:55 PM Re: Re:Making Vegan Pancakes-Can anyone help? Oh I don't use it but my mother and her family use it. My mother was one out of 16 kids and they were really poor and that stuff was cheap so they always had it. That is why they still use it today. I find it looks really gross plus it makes me sick to look at it. - jo Saturday, July 15, 2006 2:02 PM Re: Re:Making Vegan Pancakes-Can anyone help? If it is hydrogenated it is terribly bad for you. So check whether it is or not before you use it again. Jo - Tara Van Nostrand Saturday, July 15, 2006 3:07 PM Re: Re:Making Vegan Pancakes-Can anyone help? that is a staple in Arkansas. We use it all the time but since I moved to New Jersey I noticed nobody uses it up here. - jo Friday, July 14, 2006 3:06 PM Re: Re:Making Vegan Pancakes-Can anyone help? I've never heard of it.
