Pancakes

Pancakes

This recipe is for a double batch which is all I ever make these days. They freeze beautifully and reheat quickly in the toaster oven.

4 eggs
5 oz (10 tbs) unsalted butter
2 c milk
13 oz (approx 2.5c) flour
2 tbs sugar
2 tbs + 2 tsp (1.5 oz) baking powder (aluminum-free)
1.5 tsp salt
Canola oil

Combine the milk & butter, heat in the microwave to melt the butter.

Whisk together dry ingredients.

Beat eggs in a separate bowl, slowly (as not to cook the egg) add the milk & butter mixture.

Stir the wet ingredients into the dry, DO NOT OVER MIX.

Lightly oil a griddle and cook until each side is golden brown. I like dishers for portioning out the batter. #24 or #16 for regular pancakes, #70 for silver dollars.

I use oil rather than butter so the pancakes will have crispy edges.
