Pancakes

I think I’ll make it a tradition to make pancakes for Sunday morning’s breakfast. It’s easy enough to reach for the box mix but I feel more accomplished if I make the pancake batter from scratch. Besides, this way I can add as much sugar and vanilla as I want.
The pancake recipe I used comes from Oh So Tasty (here). I’ve adapted it slightly.

Recipe, makes about 6 or 7 pancakes
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup milk
1/4 cup white sugar
a pinch of salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup vegetable oil

Beat all ingredients together and make sure there are no lumps. Heat pan or griddle and pour about less than a quarter cup of batter per pancake (or more if you like bigger pancakes). I hate burning pancakes so I tend to watch over each one and once I see tiny holes poking through the surface I know I have to flip the pancake. I really suck at flipping pancakes and I make a mess too but the end result is delicious!
