Ok, there we were, deciding what was going to be for breakfast and it was almost noon. Pancakes were an interesting choice however after looking for the usual "premade" mix we found that we had none. So, the next best option was for Alex to check out one of our favorite internet sites (allrecipes.com) for more suggestions and he found some great pancakes made from scratch!
You will need:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 Tbl spoon white sugar
1 1/4 cup milk
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla (little more won't hurt either)
3 tablespoons butter (melted)
In a large bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Make a small indentation in the dry mixture and add the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir until pretty smooth (I never got all the lumps out and they still turned out great.
Next
Heat a lightly oiled griddle of frying pan (I used butter flavored pam for the oil) to medium high heat. Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan and brown both sides of the pancake.
(when the first side has bubbles its ready to be turned, I found that the pancakes burned a little quickly so keep an eye on them)
We ended up with homemade pancakes that had a little almost "crunchy" crust on the outside and a tender inside with a hint of vanilla in them! Fantastico!
