Griddlecakes

Category: Quick Breads, Muffins & Coffee Cakes

1 1/2 c. flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 Tbsp sugar
3/4 tsp salt
1 beaten egg
1 1/4 c. milk
3 Tbsp oil

Sift flour with the baking powder, sugar and salt into a mixing bowl. Mix the beaten egg, milk and oil. Heat the griddle or skillet. Add the egg-milk mixture to the dry ingredients all at once and stir quickly until the dry ingredients are moistened. Do not beat or overmix, because the mixture should be lumpy. Test the griddle by sprinkling a few drops of cold water on it. Pour the batter onto the hot griddle from a pitcher or from the tip of a large spoon. Cook until the top is full of little air bubbles and the under side is golden brown. Turn with a pancake turner before bubbles break. Brown the other side. Turn only one time. Serve at once with butter, syrup, jelly or honey.
