Sour cream adds a dose of complexity to standard pancakes.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 Cup flour
  • 1 Teaspoon sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 large egg plus 1 large egg yolk
  • 1/4 Cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons buttermilk

Directions

  • Combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl. In another small bowl, whisk egg and yolk with sour cream and buttermilk until blended. Add egg mixture to dry indredients and whisk until just combined.
  • The batter should be a little lumpy. Allow batter to rest for a couple of minutes so the baking soda can activate and bubble a bit.
  • Lightly oil a nonstick skillet and heat over medium heat. Drop batter by the tablespoon into the pan and cook for about 1 - 2 minutes until lightly browned on the bottom. Flip with a spatula and cook until other side is lightly browned.
  • Remove pancakes from skillet and arrange on a plate or platter. Lightly oil skillet to cook each batch of pancakes.
  • Top pancakes with Eggs Benedict ingredients or a dab of sour cream and caviar.
  • Makes about 24 half-dollar size pancakes
