Am I Doing Something Wrong?

I bought Kinnikinnick's pancake mix and I was sooo looking forward to eating them...but when i made them, the pancakes were runny and didn't seem to have the right texture. It seemed like too much liquid or something... I don't know what I did.

Can someone help me? Or does anyone know exactly how they prepare them so they are nice and fluffy?

Pancakes, in general, have a lot to do with the weather. Mine have been runny lately too. I think it depends on the humidity or something. I have made the same mix in the summer and they come up light and fluffy. I have no idea how to fix this problem, just sympathizing!!

FWIW, my recipe for "regular" pancakes used to do the same thing. Some days they'd be thick and puffy, others they'd just run all over the place.

I don't use a mix, but I make pancakes from scratch at least once a week. I have found that it's best to mix in too little liquid at first and then slowly stir in more until the batter is the right consistency.

I use the same pancake mix, and I put in half the liquid and stir well, then add the rest a little at a time so they don't get too runny.

Pretty much, pancake recipes are a guide, not set in stone. Never add the full amount of liquid to start with. Add everything but the water/milk/juice, then add that liquid until you get the right consistency.

Hope this helps....

I have tried several mixes and the one I like best is Pamela's. I think it's the almond flour in it that gives it such good flavor. These always cook up well. I also use them to make muffins of all varities

As someone mentioned weather does play a roll in the cooking of pancakes, but these are never runny, if anything you may have to add more water. If you do need to add morem do so a liittle at a time.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
