My Favorite Pancake Recipe


This simple recipe produces pancakes that are light and fluffy...the closest that I have ever come to restaurant quality.  These pancakes can also be frozen for a quick and easy breakfast anytime.  Place pancakes on a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze before storing in an airtight container.  To defrost, place pancakes in a single layer on a microwave safe plate and microwave for 30 second intervals until perfectly hot.  (One goal I have for this recipe...convert it to gluten free.  I'll post it as soon as I have it perfected.)

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
3 1/2 heaping teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup butter, or margarine, melted

Mix dry ingredients thoroughly.  Add egg and milk, using only enough milk to make a thick or heavy pourable batter.  Stir in butter.  Yields 20 three inch pancakes.
