Sounds too simple for a whole post, doesn't it? But still, people continue to buy pancake mixes in the store, even though making a flapjack from scratch is just as easy. Five ingredients, that's all. And, of course, you can customize them anyway you like. I personally like blueberry-banana pancakes.
This particular recipe makes a crepe-like pancake; the batter is quite thin, and the end result is flat and delicious.
Step 1
Mix 1 cup of flour, 1/2 tsp. baking powder, a pinch of salt and 1 tbsp. of sugar until just combined.
Add 1 cup of milk and two eggs and blend completely.
Step 2
Turn the burner on medium, and place the pan on the heat. Allow the pan to heat up for a few minutes, then add 1 tbsp. of butter.
Step 3
Once the butter is melted and spread around, spoon the batter in, the amount depending on the size of pancakes you're going for. Don't flip until the surface is covered in holes.
Tip:
Add 1/2 tsp. of vanilla to the batter for a delicious vanilla flavour.
Mash 1/2 a very ripe banana and blend it into the batter for banana pancakes.
Even I prefer to make the pancake mix myself rather than buy a pre-mix from the market. I mix 8 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups buttermilk blend powder, 1/2 cup sugar, 8 teaspoons baking powder, 4 teaspoons baking soda, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 egg, 1 cup water and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to make my pancakes that are light in texture and amazingly good in taste.
