\nPancakes and waffles rank among the most enjoyed and easiest to make breakfast options! We hope our Presidential Towers community members in Chicago, Illinois, will consider these amazing pancake and waffle recipes.<\/p>\n

Perfect Pancake Batter<\/h2>\n

Whisk together 1 ¼ cups of whole milk, 1\/2 stick of melted butter, 2 large eggs, and a dash of vanilla extract. Add 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 4 tablespoons of sugar, and a pinch of salt to mix together thoroughly.<\/p>\n

Perfect Waffle Batter<\/h2>\n

Thoroughly blend 2 large eggs, 1 ½ cups of whole milk, 5 tablespoons of melted shortening, 5 tablespoons of melted butter. Whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 4 teaspoons of baking powder, 3 tablespoons of sugar and a pinch of salt. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together into a smooth batter.  <\/p>\n

Fillings and Additives<\/h2>\n

Now you have the foundation to make perfectly delicious pancakes and waffles. The next step in creating extraordinary pancakes is selecting tasty additives. These are some considerations:<\/p>\n

\n
• Chocolate Chips<\/li>\n
• Blueberries<\/li>\n
• Cranberries<\/li>\n
• Peaches<\/li>\n
• Bananas<\/li>\n
• Bacon (pre-cooked)<\/li>\n
• Strawberries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  The trick to adding tasty bites to a perfect pancake is to sprinkle them on top while cooking before you flip the pancake. With waffles, you can blend them into your batter and pour into your iron.<\/p>\n

  Take Your Pancakes And Waffles To The Next Level<\/h2>\n

  With your batter of choice in place, it’s time to do the extraordinary. This can be achieved by creating fancy toppings or tweaking your amazing batter. These are two examples of how to up your game:<\/p>\n

  Berry Topping<\/h3>\n

  In a saucepan, mix 3 cups of ripe berries of your choice with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, ½ cup of sugar and a ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract. Simmer over medium heat while stirring. Reduce heat when berries become tender.  <\/p>\n

  Chocolate Batter<\/h3>\n

  Reduce all-purpose flour amount by 1\/3 cup and replace it with 1\/3 cup cocoa powder. Then, increase the amount of sugar used to 2\/3 cup. Add mini chocolate chips to make it decadent.  <\/p>\n
