Simple Pancakes


A very simple pancake recipe using ingredients i always have on hand. This is my mom's recipe; making and eating them always reminds me of saturday mornings, cartoons, and childhood. These are not big fluffy pancakes, nor are they thin; they are somewhere in between. Serve with butter, syrup, and jam.

Steps


Mix together the egg and sugar.
Whisk in vanilla and milk.
In a separate bowl , sift together the flour and baking powder.
Whisk dry ingredients into wet , leaving a few lumps.
Do not overbeat.
Preheat a skillet on med-low to medium.
Butter the skillet and drop by large spoonfuls , spreading the batter out.
When many bubbles appear , flip pancakes over.
Cook for another minute or two.
Lightly press in the center of a pancake.
If it springs back , they are done.
Between skillets of pancakes , wipe out the brown butter with a paper towel and re-butter , as this will help give you light pancakes.
