Pra quando a saudade apertar

Moramos nos EUA tempo o suficiente para nos acostumarmos com o ritual de comer um big breakfast nos fins de semana. Seja em casa ou fora de casa, nos últimos anos a nossa rotina de fim de semana sempre incluia pelo menos um café da manhã com waffles, pancakes, french toast... E não mudamos esses hábitos de pois que voltamos para o Brasil. Muito pelo contrário, essas comidinhas são esperadas com ansiedade durante a semana. 

Seguem abaixo algumas receitas que nos fazem sentir menos "homesick":
(Sorry, ingredientes em inglês!)

Best pancakes ever!

2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter, melted

cooking spray

Directions

Combine milk with vinegar in a medium bowl and set aside for 5 minutes to "sour".

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Whisk egg and butter into "soured" milk. Pour the flour mixture into the wet ingredients and whisk until lumps are gone.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and coat with cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side.
