A favorite pancake recipe of mine. This recipe went through vigorous testing to create an amazingly fluffy and light pancake. The olive oil addition is what creates such a moist cake. Olive oil can be replaced by melted butter, or even browned melted butter, for a richer flavor. Add fresh fruit or citrus zest to your completed batter to create other versions of this beauty.

Instructions

1In a large bowl, add all dry ingredients and whisk together until well combined.
2Measure out the milk in another large bowl and add the eggs and olive oil. Whisk until well combined.
3Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients while whisking to avoid any large lumps. Once well combined, stop whisking to avoid overworking the batter.
4Over a medium-hot griddle, skillet, or pan, pour a serving and flip once the top starts to bubble up. Repeat until the batter is gone.

What's the Difference? Ale vs. Lager

What's the difference between an ale and a lager? To find out, we visited Boomtown Brewery in Los Angeles, and met with Production Manager, Benjamin Turkel, to learn about the similarities and differences between the two beers. Benjamin took us through the different style points and production methods to learn ultimately what separates the two styles of brews.
