Pancakes: Tween Zone Challenge

Posted on June 26, 2020 by Library Staff in Library Blog

Baking uses chemistry to make delicious treats to eat and share. This week’s challenge is to experiment with the reactions of a base and an acid in order to make fluffy pancakes.

Supplies:

  • Stove, skillet, and spatula
  • Bowls, measuring cups, measuring spoons, knife, spoon, and fork
  • Ingredients: flour, baking soda, salt, sugar, milk, eggs, and butter

Our video on YouTube explains more: https://youtu.be/R5053JgArcE

Here is a link to a basic pancake recipe with step-by-step photos: Pancakes Recipe (PDF)

Don’t forget to ask permission to use the stove!

If you are ready for a bigger challenge, you can also try this recipe for buttermilk pancakes from Deb Perlman. Or this recipe for Japanese pancakes from The Food Network.

If experimenting with pancakes has you wanting to try more baking, make sure to check out these cookbooks and shows from the library:

Bake It by DK Publishing

The Complete Baking Book for Young Chefs by America’s Test Kitchen

The Great British Baking Show (TV series)

High Altitude Baking by Patricia Kendall

Kawaii Sweet World by Rachel Fong

Make sure to share your tasty experiments using the hashtag #PoudreLibraries.
