Kitty said: Yes.Pancakes are always rubbery?-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Pancakes are always rubbery?),it will help you,my kids.
I mix 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk (even tried buttermilk)
1tbspoon melted butter, 1tsp baking powder, 1 egg..
some vanilla/sugar to taste, cook on medium.
I cook it on a nonstick pan.. and it ALWAYS is hard on the outside, and when I tear the pancake.. it feels like rubber. It tastes like paper. What am I doing wrong?
THe flour is "all purpose", the baking powder is "clabber girl" brand.
Thx
Answers:
First u need to get a griddle if u want to make a good pancake, skillets just dont do the trick. Second, pin down a definate measurement for ur sugar and vanilla and try using cake flour, it has less protein than all purpose, and is better suited for this type of project. Last, mix only untill combined, there will still be some lumps, but thats ok, if u mix too much u will develop too much gluten. Gluten is what is produced when the protein in wheat flour is mixed with liquid and its what gives us our structure in breads, pie doughs, etc.... Once youve mixed the batter walk away, let it sit for at least fifteen minutes, this will allow the dry ingredients to soak up as much of the wet ingredients as possible, while ur waiting preheat ur griddle to 350. Then with a # 12 scoop place nice lvl scoops on griddle untill bubbles form on top and bottom is brown, flip , finish cooking , butter and enjoy.

When you add the cup of milk, you don't put the cup in the mixture. When you add the stick of butter, take it out of the paper. There's your rubber and paper problem solved.

Pancakes

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

When you add the cup of milk, you don't put the cup in the mixture. When you add the stick of butter, take it out of the paper. There's your rubber and paper problem solved.
I would not put baking powder and butter. And only about 4 tablespoons of flour for one cup of milk, until consistence of sour cream. Mix your dry ingredients first, then mix the wet ingredients separately and then put them together. ONLY STIR UNTIL IT'S BARELY MIXED. If you over-stir or stir too fast, it activates the gluten in the flour, which will cause your pancakes to be rubbery and tough.
Here's a foolproof Pancake receipe-2 cups of flour,1 1'2 cup of 2percent milk, 2eggs,1/2 of c of water- blend together and fry.
