• I don't buy boxed pancake mix anymore

  I have stopped buying boxed pancake mix because I have a great recipe from an old homemakers cookbook. This recipe is so easy, and made with stuff I always have around the house anyway. Now I'm sharing with you.

  

  Makes 10-12 pancakes, approx. 5" across

  • 2 Cups flour
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1 egg, well beaten
  • 2 Cups milk
  • 1/3 Cup oil or melted fat

  Mix dry ingredients thoroughly. Combine egg with milk and oil, add to dry ingredients, stirring only until combined. (Not over-mixing is the secret to fluffy pancakes.) Heat griddle on medium heat. Griddle is hot eneough when drops of water sprinkled on it bounce. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup batter onto griddle. Cook until edges become dry and bubbles on top burst into craters. Turn and brown the other side.

  These are the best pancakes, and healthier for you because they aren't preprocessed.
