Dave's Pancakes



Prep time: 20 minutes

Cooking time: 4 to 5 minutes per batch

Yield: makes about 6 medium pancakes

Ingredients

• 1 cup milk

• 1 large egg

• 2 tablespoons butter, melted, plus unmelted butter for greasing the pan

• 2 tablespoons sugar

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 2 pinches of salt

• 1¼ cups all-purpose flour

• 1½ teaspoons baking powder

Method of Preparation

Preheat the oven to its warm setting (about 200°F). Beat the milk, egg, melted butter, sugar, vanilla and salt in a large bowl until the mixture is blended. Stir in the flour and baking powder until it is fully incorporated and the batter is smooth. Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes.

Heat the skillet for about 3 minutes over medium heat. Test the pan temperature by dropping a drop or two of water into it. The water should sizzle and evaporate in about 3 seconds.

Melt a couple tablespoons of butter in the pan until the bottom is covered. Use a ⅓ cup measure to scoop the batter for medium-size pancakes; they should fit in the pan without touching. Let the pancakes cook until small bubbles pop through the surface and bottoms are golden brown (4 or 5 minutes). Flip each pancake with a spatula and cook the other side.

Set the finished pancakes on a baking sheet and put them in the oven to keep them warm. Make the remaining pancakes and then serve them with your favorite toppings.
