Quick Guide to Creating a McGriddle at Home

Here is a simple way of having a mcgriddle at home.

Ingredients:

  • Pancake mix
  • 4 Sausage patties
  • 4 Eggs
  • 4 sliced of Sliced cheese

Directions

  1. Mix up pancake batter. I like to mix my batter up in a 4-cup measuring cup. See picture below. It makes it easier for pouring
  2. Beat eggs. I like to beat the eggs in a 2-cup measuring cup. See picture below. It makes it easier for pouring.
  3. Heat griddle over medium heat.
  4. Spray griddle with cooking oil
  5. Place rings onto griddle and spray with cooking oil.
  6. Pour a small amount of pancake batter into rings.
  7. Take the ring off when the pancake looks ready to flip. See pictures below.
  8. Remove pancake from pan when it is ready. Repeat the steps for cooking the pancakes until the batter is finished.
  9. Cook sausage as directed according to package.
  10. Place the rings on the griddle. Spray the griddle and the rings with cooking oil.
  11. Pour a little of the egg into the rings. See picture below.
  12. When the eggs are ready, put it together. Place it back on the warm griddle for a about 1-2 minutes on each side to melt the cheese. (My family would rather I just sit the eggs, sausage, pancakes, and cheese on the table. They like to put it together their selves.)
  13. Enjoy.

INGREDIENTS


For the Salsa de Chipotle:

  • 3-4 Roma Tomatoes; cleaned and chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, medium

Prepare the Huevos Estrellados:

Mastering Pancakes: A Generational Recipe

Pancakes!
My daddy was raised by his grandmother. He became grandma’s baby. He was frequently by her side. She made sure that nobody messed with her baby. Growing up he often watched her cook. He liked to eat pancakes, and she would make them for him. He learned to make pancakes by watching her make them.

When I was a little girl, he would sometimes make pancakes. It was always a treat. I would sit on the bar and watch him mix up the batter and fry them. After I got grown, I asked him, for the recipe. He explained that there was no written recipe. He had learned by watching his grandma.
This according to my dad is also a cake recipe when the batter is doubled. So, I watched him very closely as he poured in the flour and the sugar. I watched as he melted, the butter in the cast iron skillet. I watched as he mixed an egg into the flour and sugar. I watched as he added the water (he used water instead of milk because I was lactose intolerant), and mixed. Then he carefully added in the melted butter. According to him the butter, is the secret to fluffy pancakes. He made sure everything was mixed together and then he fried the pancakes in butter.
The next morning, he told me to make the pancakes while he watched to make sure I was doing it right.
I wrote the recipe down based on the proportions that were used. Below is the recipe.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups Self-rising flour
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 Tablespoons butter – Plus more for frying
  • ½-3/4 cup water or milk

Directions:

  1. Mix the flour and sugar together.
  2. Melt the butter.
  3. Mix the egg into the flour and sugar.
  4. Add 1/2 cup water
  5. Add butter.
  6. Add more water if needed to get the right consistency.
  7. Preheat the pan to medium heat.
  8. After the pan is hot, pour some of the batter into the pan and cook on low to medium heat until you see bubbles.
  9. Flip and cook until both sides are light brown.
  10. Finish cooking the rest of the batter the same way. Make sure to watch the pan. If the pan gets too hot, the pancake will cook too fast on the outside and not get done in the middle. If the pan gets too cool, the pancake will soak up too much butter and be greasy.
  11. Enjoy
