Undercooked pancakes

My crazy son likes his pancakes still gooey inside. I always make
them with only yolks, and I'm not at all worried about the raw egg
salmonella thing, but it seems a bit yucky. Anyone else like raw
pancake/cake batter?

I always lick the batter from my rubber scraper after putting my
Banana Bread 2.0 batter into the baking dishes. And when making
chocolate chip cookies with my friend Scott's daughter Samantha I
initiated the custom (with Scott's approval of course) of after mixing
and before scaling, everyone (who wants it) gets ONE teaspoon of raw
cookie dough. Only one though, as big as you can get with a teaspoon.

Raw batter tastes good. It's primarily the sugar in it. But I tend to
agree with you Bryan. I like my pancakes properly done. And I always
brag to people about your ability to make a good pancake too! After
all, anyone who can correctly cook a BLACK pancake (remember those?)
knows their pancake cooking! :-)

We had to add unattractive food colors to our food to make it
unappealing to the sponging hippies next door. The earlier mentioned
pancakes were banana with lots of vanilla.

One of the best things about making chocolate chip cookies is scrapping
out the leftover batter and eating it.

I leave out the egg yolk, and the rest of the egg as well. I add 1/2
overripe banana to each 1/2 cup pancake mix, along with whatever liquid. It
adds the bit of richness that eggs add. Crush and mix it all together, and
proceed. This works well for either pancakes or waffles. Banana replaces
the egg in the underdone portion, as it does throughout the pancake.

Make your pancakes, but be sure to add much raw liver and/or kidneys
to the batter. Call them over. Tell them you just et, and have
leftovers for the neighbours.

Making the food unappealing to the sponging hippies was coincidental,
as I recall. But it was effective in that!

Children are funny like that, you never know what they will like or
dislike. If you are concerned about salmonella, you can omit the eggs
and use flax seed meal, instead. You use 1 tablespoon powdered flax
seed soaked in 3 tablespoons water for each egg in the recipe.

If Pop pulled out the green mixing bowl on Sunday morning, we kissed up
to him like nobody's business. Even down to the nickel, dime and quarter
remainder pancakes. Except for bbq-grilled chicken, etc., pancakes were
about the only thing we had any confidence in him cooking.

I'd make a final pancake for Annabelle, our jack russell terror after we
finished eating. She'd dutifully take it outside and bury it, for when
times get tough, hoping that she might come to our rescue" Now I have
pancakes growing on trees. <VBG>
