Good Goat Tip

We love making extra pancakes to keep in the freezer! Once cooled, freeze any leftovers and pop a pancake in the toaster whenever you need a quick breakfast or snack.

Method

  1. Reconstitute Good Goat Milk Powder by whisking approximately 2 scoops (56 g) into 2½ cups of lukewarm water.
  2. Whisk vinegar into milk; this will make the milk go lumpy and is a substitute for buttermilk.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together.
  4. Using your whisk, make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients. Pour the milk mixture into the well and crack eggs into the milk. Whisk everything together. Pour melted butter into the mixture and whisk together. Do not over mix; the batter will be a bit lumpy, but this is ok.
  5. Heat a large skillet over low heat for 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of butter or oil to the pan.
  6. Place 3-5 pieces of banana into the butter in the skillet then pour 1/3 cup of pancake batter over the bananas.
  7. Flip pancake after bubbles rise to the surface and the bottom is golden brown, around 2 to 4 minutes. Cook until the other side is lightly browned.
  8. Eat right away or keep warm in the oven until the rest of the batter is cooked.
