Grandmas Western Style Pancakes Andor Waffles Recipes

GRANDMA'S WAFFLE COOKIES (PIZZELLES)

Steps:

• Combine eggs, sugar, vegetable oil, butter, and anise oil in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat until creamy and well combined. Mix in 1 cup flour, baking powder, and salt until combined. Slowly add remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing on low speed until mixture resembles a thick pancake batter.
• Preheat a pizzelle cooking iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Drop a teaspoon of dough onto each plate of the cooking iron and close the lid. Cook just until steaming slows, 10 to 20 seconds. Repeat with remaining batches of batter.

GRANDMA'S "WESTERN STYLE PANCAKES"... AND/OR WAFFLES!

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl, beat eggs and add wet ingredients *and sugar*. (If you add sugar to the dry ingredients though, it's still good -- for some reason it seems better if it's added to the wet ones, though!).
• Add wet ingredients to the dry, and mix well (by hand).
• Pour into your waffle maker and follow the waffle maker directions, or pour approximately 1/4 cup onto a hot griddle (I use an electric griddle at approximately 350 degrees).
• When the top of the pancakes start to bubble and the bubbles start to pop, they are ready to flip. Flip the pancakes and cook until the other side has cooked and the pancakes are golden brown.
• Serve with whipped cream and strawberries or with butter and maple syrup --
• Enjoy! (Mmmmm!).
