Mylinci (Iryna’s Grandmother’s Pancakes)

Ingredients

  • 1 to 2 cups of all-purpose flour, depending on how thick the buttermilk is
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp butter or bacon fat for frying
  • Sour cream, melted butter and/or chopped cooked bacon for serving

Instructions

  • 1. Combine all dry ingredients, starting with 1 cup of flour. Add the eggs, mix well. Add the buttermilk and mix well with a whisk. If the batter is too thin, add more flour. Batter should be smooth and creamy, coating the whisk, but still easy to ladle into a pan.
  • 2. Melt ½ tbs of butter or bacon fat in a skillet over low heat. Pour enough batter into the pan to make a plate-sized pancake. When tiny bubbles start to appear, flip the pancake over. Cook each side until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
  • Makes about 4 large pancakes.
  • Serve with sour cream, a little melted butter and chopped bacon.
