what type of beer do you make your man cakes with?

as odd is this may seem, the title explains it all.

...and if you've never heard of man cakes until now...you're welcome

A milk stout maybe?

WHAT!?!?!? This is crazy! I'm making these as soon as I have a day off.

Hmmm...I somehow should have known bacon would be involved....

This is genius, simply genius. I don't even think I have the words to describe the brilliance of this recipe.

sounds awesome. i might try it this weekend. can someone tell me what Bisquick is?

looks like this

How about using some wort from your boil for the liquid and leave out the sugar ?

For simplicity's sake, you don't need bisquick, you can simply buy ready made pancake mix, the one that says: "just add water" and replace the ingredient water, with beer.

Some beers work well, others don't but this is the best way to try. Once you find a batch you like, you can then start making your own batter by using flour, eggs, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. then add chocolate, vanilla, whatever. with the fusion of brewing and baking, the possiblilities are endless

for some reason, i think an IPA would work really nice in this.

nice fluffy, hoppy pancakes.

IMHO when cooking with beer, use a beer that you think has a fantastic aroma. That seems to be what comes through in the end.

I've topped my pancakes with Hops Jelly. Sounds better than it was.

Maybe a nice amber would go better.
