MATERIALS:
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 3/4 cups milk, *see note
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Beat egg with hand beater until fluffy; beat in remaining ingredients just until smooth. Grease a heated griddle.
- Pour about 3 tablespoons batter from tip of large spoon or from pitcher onto hot griddle.
- Cook pancakes until puffed and dry around edges (tiny bubbles will begin to form).
- Turn and cook other sides until golden brown. Flipping once should be enough. The first pancake isn't always the best one.
- Note: Buttermilk, yogurt, or sour cream may be substituted for some or all of the milk.
- This may cause the batter to be too thick or too thin; adjust accordingly by adding milk to thin or flour to thicken. When you use a sour ingredient, cut the baking powder by 1/2 tablespoon and add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. If you don't have buttermilk, you can add powdered buttermilk to the milk (a good thing to have on the shelf).
Makes about 18 four inch pancakes.
