THE Best Buttermilk Pancake Recipe
Comments (27)I made Grandpa Corliss's pancakes this morning. I want to thank everyone for sharing their experiences, it helped me reach success with these wonderful tasting pancakes. I used my Happy Call pan that I use with other pancakes but Grandpa's stuck to the top pan when I flipped. I gradually added more flour but I think it might have been that the dark brown sugar I used caramelized and made it stick. I cooked it a little longer and that worked a bit better. I did have numerous volunteer pancakes but still ended up with a generous number of pancakes to go with my Grade B maple and European Style Sweet Butter. While they were very good, I had better practice again tomorrow ;>) Thanks Beth. Here is a link that might be useful: Flip Pan...See Moreyogurt for buttermilk in muffin recipe
Comments (15)I also make those substitutions frequently, but I did make one recipe that either just wasn't very good, which is unlikely because it was a Dorie Greenspan cake recipe, or it was a bad idea to use yogurt instead of sour cream. I figure it was the latter. I don't recall exactly what the recipe was at the moment, but I do remember that the yogurt was too sour and too thin to make a good substitute. For one thing, I used non-fat yogurt. I've learned my lesson that in some recipes, the real thing is best. If I were to try that again with yogurt, I'll use full fat. But then, what would be the point? Sally...See MoreRECIPE: Buttermilk Sauce -- incredibly good!!

Comments (9)I baked the cake and used all the buttermilk called for. It was good -- very moist and heavy. I like heavy, but some might not. Several people ate two pieces and my grandson asked if he could have the same cake for his birthday -- only with blue icing instead of orange. So it was successful. I still don't know what the difference is between the amounts of milk and will probably do another with only the one cup, using buttermilk to see what happens.
