Buttermilk Bacon Pancakes Recipes

BUTTERMILK-BACON PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon, and let drain on paper towels, reserving 1 tablespoon drippings in skillet. Reserve remaining drippings.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla, and eggs. Make a well in center of flour mixture; add buttermilk mixture, stirring just until combined.
• Cut each bacon slice in half crosswise. For each pancake, place 2 bacon pieces side by side in skillet. Spoon ⅓ cup batter over bacon pieces, spreading slightly. Cook until edges are dry and bubbles form in center of pancakes, about 3 minutes; turn, and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes more. Use reserved bacon drippings as needed. Serve with maple syrup.

BUTTERMILK, BANANA, BACON PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Set aside. Mix the buttermilk, vanilla extract and eggs in another bowl until thoroughly combined. Stir in the bacon and banana. Fold in the dry ingredients.
• Preheat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add a little bacon fat or butter and allow to heat and melt. Add about 1/2 cup of the batter for each pancake. Allow the pancake to cook until it starts to bubble on top and gets golden brown around the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another minute. Remove to a platter. Repeat with the remaining batter. Top with butter and maple syrup.

BUTTERMILK CORN PANCAKES WITH BACON & MAPLE SYRUP

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2 - you'll need the oven to keep the pancakes warm later on. Put the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, eggs, buttermilk, melted butter and half the sweetcorn into the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine (you want the corn to be chopped, not puréed). Stir in the spring onions and remaining corn.
• Heat two frying pans over a medium heat, and add about 1 tbsp oil to each. Ladle two pancakes, measuring about 10-12cm across, into each pan. Cook for about 3-4 mins until set and small bubbles form on top. Using a palette knife, flip the pancakes over and cook on the other side for 2-3 mins more. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a roasting tin or baking sheet lined with a double layer of baking parchment, and put in the oven to keep them warm.
• When all the pancakes are cooked, add a little more oil to the pans, then cook the bacon until golden on both sides. Serve alongside the pancakes, with the maple syrup drizzled over and some extra spring onions sprinkled on top.

FLUFFY BUTTERMILK PANCAKES WITH PRALINE BACON

Steps:

• FOR THE PRALINE BACON:.
• Place a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and lay the bacon slices in a single layer. Bake for 10 minutes.
• In a small bowl, toss together the pecans, sugar, and pepper. Remove the bacon from the oven and sprinkle with the sugar mixture.
• Bake for 10 to 12 more minutes, until browned and bubbling.
• FOR THE PANCAKES:.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, butter, buttermilk, and vanilla. Pour the mixture all at once into the flour mixture and whisk well.
• On a griddle pan or in a nonstick skillet set over medium heat, melt a bit of clarified butter. Spoon ¼-cup portions of the batter into the pan and cook for 1 minute. Press one piece of bacon into each pancake, and continue cooking for about 2 more minutes, until golden brown. Flip the pancakes and cook until the second side is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the pancakes to an ovenproof plate and keep warm in the oven. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, adding more clarified butter to the pan as necessary.
• Serve with maple syrup.
