"Craving a delicious breakfast this week but don't have time to visit either IHOP or Denny's for pancakes? Make them at home, then. Thanks to a fun and easy food hack circulating on social media, you can easily make homemade pancakes with just two ingredients, both of which may already be in your pantry: ice cream and self-rising flour. You'll get a pancake batter that will cook into fluffy, delicious flapjacks - just like any other pancake batter would."
"How does this work, you ask? Well, ice cream is typically made with ingredients you'd also find in pancake batter, such as eggs, milk, and sugar. When ice cream melts, it's essentially like mixing those ingredients together. Mix in self-rising flour, which already contains a leavening agent such as baking powder, and you've got yourself the perfect pancake batter. The best part? These two-ingredient pancakes are soft, fluffy, and delicious - and no one has to know your secret unless you share it."
Melted ice cream combined with self-rising flour creates an instant pancake batter because ice cream contains eggs, milk, and sugar while self-rising flour supplies leavening. Use about two heaping cups of melted ice cream mixed with roughly one cup of self-rising flour and cook as standard pancakes for soft, fluffy results. If only all-purpose or cake flour is available, add a half teaspoon of baking powder to compensate for the missing leavening agent. Any ice cream flavor can be used, producing effortless pancakes with flavor variations depending on the chosen ice cream.
