Easy and simple pancake recipe

Let us start with something simple (not that any pancake recipe is difficult) - a simple pancakes recipe. This is I think the fastest way to make pancakes and since they are easy to make however you make them I think we still won't be sacrificing anything in the taste department:). We will just cut a few corners and leave out a few steps so we will have less dirty dishes and we will be finished and eating faster. These pancakes are usually served with butter and syrup, but you can of course use lots and lots of different toppings from fruits, cream, chocolate etc. I think I'll cover all the different toppings that you can put on your pancakes in another recipe. Let's get started with what do we need for this recipe.
Simple pancakes
Ingredients for this easy and simple pancake recipe:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups milk
2 tablespoons melted butter

Lets make some pancakes!

First we will take a bowl large enough to hold all of our pancake batter and fill it with 1 1/2 cups milk, 2 large eggs and 2 tablespoons melted butter. Quickly mix the milk and eggs together.

Then add all the salt, sugar, baking powder and some flour and start stiring. Stir and keep adding the flour until you add all of it. Stop stiring as soon as the batter is smooth and without lumps. It should be pretty thick but still liquid enough so you can pour it. If it is to thick add some more milk and mix a little more.

Great, now our batter is ready.

Usually these kind of pancakes are made on a hot greased griddle but we can also use a pan and they will turn out great aswell. Take about 1/4 cup of batter and pour it on the griddle. Pancakes should be cooked until they are bubbly, a little dry around the edges, and lightly browned on the bottom. Then we turn them around and brown them on the other side.

This easy and simple pancake recipe will serve four.

not sure i was the only one slow enough to do this, but the recipe seems to leave out the baking soda. It's listed in the ingredients but isn't included in a step. Just a heads up.

These were the best pancakes ever!! I have made pancakes all over the world and different recipes but these would have to be the best and my whole family agrees!!! we did add a little vanilla essence too and for the aussie reader we used self raising flour instead of the salt, baking powder and plain flour. ENJOY!! we know you will

I was looking for something simple I could make. I got this recipe off the website and within 30 minutes had a lovely stack of pancakes.

The instructions are so easy and I managed without the baking powder.

I'm looking forward to my next adventure in the kitchen.
