Sunday Pancakes... from Scratch!

    I got a recipe for pancakes from my mom a couple of years ago, when I make it I double the recipe so I can freeze some pancakes for one day during the week.  I usually use one half wheat and one half white flour but today I had more white flour than wheat, so we had white pancakes. 

    It certainly isn't easy for Alex to double the recipes, but I think she will catch on after a couple of batches.  She told my friend that math is now her favorite subject.  I think she likes helping me in the kitchen, but the math will come later simply from doing.  Alex even got to scramble her and Gabe's eggs. 


Homemade Pancakes

1c.       flour
1/2tsp. salt
2tbs.    baking powder
2tbs.    sugar
1         egg
3/4c.   milk
2tbs.   oil or melted butter
1tsp.   vanilla

Mix together in large bowl flour, salt, baking powder and sugar.  Set aside.  In smaller bowl combine egg, milk, oil or butter and Vanilla.  Mix well and add to dry bowl.  Stir the two together to desired consistency, use 1/4c. measuring cup to scoop onto griddle or pan.  Cook until golden brown and flip cooking other side until golden brown.  Enjoy!  (Don't forget to shut everything off!)
