I was looking over a list of the all-time most popular recipes posted on Allrecipes last week, and there it was at number one��Good Old Fashioned Pancakes.� Since I�ve never done a classic American pancake recipe video, despite countless food wishes for just that, I decided it was an omen that could not be ignored.
This is from Dakota Kelly, who claims to have found it on a well-worn card in her Grandma's recipe book. Well, Grandma Kelly, if that is your real name, this recipe makes one fine stack of pancakes. Not too thick, not too thin, tender, light, buttery, and delicious.
I�ve always used those exact same seven ingredients, as do 90% of all pancake makers, but like many �pros,� I simply throw everything in a bowl, and stir in enough milk, until the batter feels �right.� I never bothered to write down the formula.
So, as much as I hate to admit it, it was actually kind of fun to use an exact set of measurements, knowing I�ll now be able to repeat these results again and again. I know that boxed mix is convenient, but every once in a while you need to make this kind of recipe from scratch. I hope you give them a try soon. Enjoy!
Ingredients for about 12 small pancakes:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
