55 Days of Grilling: Day 4 Breakfast

Anya and I made pancakes on the grill today — I put the batter in and flip the first time, then she takes them out of the pan. She wanted to toss the cooked pancake on the grill to get some “grill marks” … which was pretty cool.

The batter is an extra vanilla-y buttermilk pancake recipe:

2c flour
1t baking powder
1t baking soda
1/2t salt

2c buttermilk
3T maple syrup
1 egg
2T oil
1T vanilla

It’s actually a powdered buttermilk, so that’s half a cup of buttermilk powder and two cups of water. I mixed up some “pancake mix” so next time we’re making pancakes … we just need to add water, oil, maple syrup, vanilla, and an egg.

Notes

  • These were really good — Scott fried up some bacon in a cast iron pan so we had bacon cheese burgers.

55 Days of Grilling

Scott’s been really excited to start grilling again now that the temps are warmer. We’ve got a little grill right by the family room door, and we’re ready to grill. The goal is to grill something each day for the next 55 days — starting with burgers for dinner tonight. There’s a long list of things we want to try grilling — especially grilled pineapple (so I’ll have to get to the grocery store soon!) and how-high-can-this-thing-go pizza. Hopefully we can get above 600 degrees and make some really nice pizza crust.
