Pancakes

Mix together:  1 cup milk or buttermilk

1 egg

2 Tablespoons salad oil

Add:                1 cup flour

                        1 Tbsp. Sugar

                        1 tsp. baking powder

                        ½ tsp. baking soda

                        ½ tsp. salt

Mix until moistened.  Pour batter onto heated and greased skillet.  Flip pancakes when bubbles appear on top of batter.  Serve with butter and/or syrup.

Note: While this is just a simple recipe, I use to makes these for breakfast all the time. When I had all four kids at home I would have to quadruple this recipe to feed them all! I also use to add wheat germ and/or bran to make them healthier, and when two of my kids developed milk allergies, I made them with apple juice instead of milk! You can also add a tablespoon of organic soy flour or powdered milk to boost the protein if you like. I always use unbleached flour and nowadays I often use organic flour.
