Ratio: Variations on the Theme of Pancakes I

This entry is part 1 of 4 in the series Ratio

Creamy Stout Rye Pancakes

The first ratio incorporates my husband’s love of three things: rye, beer and honey. Stouts always seem to be described as creamy, particularly the foam, so I used cream for the other half of the liquid. I sprinkled toasted walnut pieces over the cakes to add some crunch to this grown-up griddlecake.

These came out beautifully with a light beer flavor. We topped them with drizzled honey and had them for lunch. This ratio made a dozen 4″ pancakes — more than enough for two, plenty for three or four.
