ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 5 teaspoons sugar
- 1 1⁄3 cups milk
- 1 cup flour
- 3⁄4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons vegetable oil (optional)
directions
- In a bowl or mixing jug, whisk together egg, sugar and half of milk (2/3 cup).
- Add the flour and mix throughly.
- Then add remaining milk (2/3 cup) and baking powder. It should be the consistency of thick cream.
- (Optional): Add 1-1/2 tsp oil if you have trouble with sticking.
- Beat until smooth.
- Pour about a soup spoon sized amount onto a pre-heated lightly greased frying pan or griddle (You will need to start about medium high heat but after a few rounds you will need to drop it back to medium).
- Flip with a spatula when the top is all bubbly (should be a lovely golden colour), and cook the other side (~45 seconds/side depending on stovetop).
- Remove from pan and pile up on a plate (cover with a paper towel until served).
- Serve with whatever you like and enjoy.

READ THE DESCRIPTION (which I didn't ). This says its a cross between crepes and flapjacks and I would say thats spot on for both texture, consistency and flavor. I added a splash of vanilla and after the 1st one I added another 1/3 cup of flour. Tasted fine, but then I add frozen blueberries to mine which makes it harder for a 'pretty' pancake. I'll probably go back to buying Krusteez instant pancake mix, but this worked to show my daughter we can make them from scratch easily.

I used organic wholewheat flour in place of white flour and the pancakes turned out perfectly fluffy. They would probably be lighter if I'd used white flour, but I felt guilt-free eating them this way. I also did not add any oil...not even in the frying pan, which is a Tefal red dot pan. What a great easy pancake recipe.
