Description

These Oregon Griddle Cakes are a comforting classic that brings the warmth of a home-cooked meal to your table. Featuring a simple yet effective blend of all-purpose flour, milk, and melted butter, these cakes achieve a tender crumb and a perfectly golden crust. The resting period allows the batter to relax, ensuring a lighter, fluffier texture. They are incredibly versatile, pairing beautifully with fresh raspberry jam, pure maple syrup, or even a dollop of whipped cream. Ideal for lazy weekend mornings, holiday breakfasts, or as a sweet treat to share with family and friends, this recipe is a reliable favorite that delivers consistent, delicious results every time.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl until well combined.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the milk, melted butter, and eggs until smooth and uniform.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk gently until just blended; small lumps are acceptable.
  4. Let the batter stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate fully.
  5. Heat a heavy large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
  6. Drop the batter by scant 1/4 cupfuls into the hot skillet, spacing them evenly.
  7. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown and bubbles form on the surface, about 2 minutes.
  8. Flip the cakes and cook until the second side is golden brown, about 1 minute.
  9. Transfer the cooked cakes to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
  10. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
  11. Serve the griddle cakes hot, topped with raspberry jam and pure maple syrup.
