Old Fashion Overnight Pancakes Recipe

I’m not a morning person, so anything I can do to sleep in a little bit helps!   With a daughter in kindergarten now it’s important to me I send her with a full belly.   Here’s my solution to both problems.   These are some of the best pancakes ever.

- – Ingredients – -

• 6 Cups All-Purpose Flour
• 4 1/2 TBSP Baking Powder
• 3 tsp Salt
• 4 TBSP Sugar
• 5 Cups Milk
• 4 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 4 Eggs
• 4 1/2 TBSP Butter (melted)

- – Directions – -

1. Toss all ingredients into a large bowl and mix with mixer until well blended.   Cover and place in refrigerator overnight.
2. Preheat skillet or griddle and spray with a light coat of cooking spray.
3. Batter will rise and be very thick, so use a small cup or measuring cup to scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle one at a time.
4. Cook until brown on both sides.
5. Serve.   And see the Freezer Cooking tip below!

- – Cooking Tips & Ideas – -

• Get Creative - Add fruit or peanut butter or chocolate chips for a new taste, use to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, or top with peanut butter and drizzle in syrup before serving.

• Freezer Cooking - This recipe yields 32 servings, so place the remaining into a freezer bag once they’ve cooled completely.   They pop apart easily once frozen and can be tossed into the toaster for a quick, delicious breakfast in the morning!

• For Kids - When these pancakes hit the skillet, they are thick, so you can use a spoon to easily (but quickly) shape them into Mickey Mouse, a heart, or whatever!
