Favorite Pancakes
- Ten 4-inch pancakes
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons shortening, melted, or salad oil
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Beat egg; add remaining ingredients in order listed and beat with rotary beater until smooth. Grease heated griddle if necessary. To test griddle sprinkle with a few drops of water. If bubbles skitter around, heat is just right.
- Pour batter from tip of large spoon or from pitcher onto hot griddle. Turn pancakes as soon as they are puffed and full of bubbles break. Bake other side until golden brown.
Note: If using self-rising flour, omit baking powder and salt and decrease soda to 1/4 teaspoon.
