Simple Pancakes

Hi all,

I have a request from A for pancakes. These make thick fluffy pancakes and are excellent with maple syrup and fruit.

Preheat large frying pan.

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar

Mix the above items together in large bowl.

1 to 1 1/4 cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter melted

Mix the above liquid ingredients together in a 2 cup measure or a small bowl.

Pour all the liquid ingredients together into the dry ingredients and stir together just until mixed.

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in frying pan. Spoon batter onto hot frying pan, about 1/4 cup for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on top or until the bottoms get browned. You can lift up a corner of a pancake with a spatula to check the browning. Turn the pancakes to brown on other side. Makes 8 or 9 pancakes.

You can also add chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or blueberries to jazz up the pancakes.

These are great in the morning with strawberries! Enjoy!

Hugs,
