PB and J pancakes.
So what we have here is
that peanut butter mixed with two overripe bananas.
That's the first step.
So what you want to do classically, like making a cake,
you're just going to cream this together.
Then once you cream it together,
you're gonna add two whole eggs,
beautiful room temperature eggs
are gonna cream
Yeah
a lot better with this.
So we're gonna go ahead and cream together our eggs.
Here's what we have here.
This is how easy this is.
Two bananas overripe. I just added a quarter cup of milk
as our half a cup of peanut butter
and our two room temperature eggs
that are gonna bring the whole thing together.
Now, Rachel, having a little girl in the house
I learned that bleached flour and flour products,
the things I wanted to cut away,
and how can I get her more whole wheat into her system?
This is whole wheat flour, which is half the amount
if you were to make a white base pancake.
So this is just whole wheat and look, that's it.
That's all I'm adding to this whole portion of that.
There is a teaspoon of baking soda,
a teaspoon of baking powder,
and then a half a teaspoon of salt.
And you've heard Rachel and I say this many, many times,
salt is the equalizer that brings the whole thing together.
Yes, yes.
Okay.
Wow.
Right.
Gorgeous.
So here's
Gorgeous, Ryan, gorgeous.
Here's my trick.
Fresh blueberries are great.
We have a lot of berries in the fridge.
If for any reason, I know a lot of your staff has kids.
So these little freeze dried berries
that are in everybody's pouches these days,
this is a great solution.
If you have that,
throw those freeze dried berries inside here.
But I only add about eight ounces of fresh blueberries.
This is a little bit of coconut spray, okay.
And what we do is I take a paper towel here
and this is one thing I don't.
I was raised in a little diner too.
So I don't like blotchy pancakes.
So what I do is I take my towel and I
And wipe it around, yes.
Seasoning it.
And at the same time, we're not going to have
those little blotchy spots on pancakes,
that doesn't happen in the Scott House.
So here's what we're gonna do.
I'm just going to set these little guys right in here
and the blueberries.
Oh I love this scoop, look at the scoop.
I love this.
Portion size for kids.
You also know what you're feeding them.
We know that this is about a tablespoon and a half,
about two ounces.
So we know that a couple of these is a half a cup.
Adorable.
So there's portion control at the same time
which is a really good thing.
So what you want to do prong it like a hamburger.
And Rachel showed you guys a million times, leave it be,
get that Maillard, get that caramelization.
Let's let the peanut butter and all,
everything in here react.
And you notice that the pancakes over on our cam here
are starting to rise and what's happening
is baking soda and baking powder
are starting to work together.
They're leavening, they're bringing the pancake out
and they're bringing the pancake up
and look at this guy.
And here's the thing, that is a
Dude. Look at the skin of that pancake.
It doesn't have a blemish on it, not a bubble in sight.
And they go just like this.
And then I just let it sit.
I flip it like a little bedtime story and I talk to it.
And I just say come on little pancake
and the cool thing about this is when these come up Rach,
this is what I do in one trick y'all.
I don't cook just for today.
I cooked for tomorrow and Friday.
I take a simple little roasting rack
baking rack that you have.
And then instead of having the pancake
rest on a plate and cool down on a plate,
I cool them down on a roasting rack
with a little bit of space in between each one.
And that way Rach, I freeze them on a sheet pan.
And then I put them into a Ziploc and all Leslie does,
if I'm on the road, now that we're traveling again,
she takes a wet paper towel. She wraps it.
She nukes it in the microwave for 10 seconds
and little baby Olive can have two fresh pancakes
just like that.
And I know what are
what's in them at the same time, which is a great thing.
And you can trust it
because you processed the food.
I'm going to take this pancake and Rach look
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
The pan did all the work.
My friend, I'm just going to stack a couple of these up.
I don't know why I get
into this hunching mode when I plate
but this is just an old chef thing of mine.
But we just take it like so, and Rach,
the one thing I'm proud about this book
is things like this dish
where you need no maple syrup.
There is no melted butter in this dish
and these are fluffy amazing, and just
Delicious and nutritious.
I really cannot thank you enough for being part
of our family for so long.
And I cannot celebrate you enough.
What a beautiful, simple work
that will mean so much to so many people.
