Now you will notice, it says it makes 6 servings, which is a yield of 12 pancakes. That's not a whole lot in my opinion, so I decided to double the recipe. I probably shouldn't have done that. You would think the 3+ cups of milk and 5 cups of flour would have clued me in that it was going to make a LOT, but nope. I'm just glad I decided to use my biggest mixing bowl...it was full!
I did make some modifications, based on the reviews I read. The doubled recipe is below, my additions/changes are in parenthesis/italics.
- 4 eggs
- 3-1/3 cups milk (3 1/2 cups)
- 2 (8 ounce) containers plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 5 cups all-purpose flour (2 cups whole wheat, 3 cups all-purpose)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (1.5 tablespoons)
- (fresh grated nutmeg)
- (4-5 tablespoons sugar)
- 2 apple - peeled, cored and diced (3 apples, but they were a tad on the small side)
I was super hungry while I was making these, so as soon as the first 4 came off the griddle and I could stand biting into one without scorching my mouth, I did. They were pretty good. I think next time I will increase the cinnamon to a fully double, put more nutmeg (although I suppose measuring it in the first place would help, huh?), and add in vanilla (applesauce in place of the oil would be good too!). I meant to put vanilla in but just forgot. However, I was eating them plain, but Tim had some with syrup and he said they tasted good. I'm guessing the sweet syrup added enough flavor. :-)
Seriously though, unless you have at least 10-15 people you are making these pancakes for, don't double the recipe! I lost count of how many I made, but I was cooking them for a loooooooong time!
