Hot-off-the-griddle goodies are always a welcome sight put on the table...morning, noon and night. Instead of serving these palate-pleasing pancakes with ordinary maple syrup, make this extraordinary cherry sauce. You'll be thanked mmm-many times over! Ingredients:
1-3/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 eggs |
1-1/2 cups milk |
3 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice |
cherry sauce: |
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling |
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon almond extract |
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
whipped cream in a can |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs; add milk, oil and lemon juice. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
2. Pour batter by 1/3 cupfuls onto a lightly greased hot griddle; turn when bubbles form on top of pancakes. Cook until the second side is golden brown.
3. For cherry sauce, combine pie filling, extract and nutmeg in a medium saucepan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
4. To serve as shown in the photo, stack pancakes on serving plates and make a heart outline with whipped cream; spoon cherry sauce into heart. Yield: 4 servings (12 pancakes).
