pancakes

It was a special weekend day when Dad made pancakes - two things Mum never made were pancakes and pizza dough. These are excellent when served with lots of butter and Canadian maple syrup.

Pancakes (from Canadian Cooking)

1 1/2 cups of flour

1 tsp salt

3 tbsp sugar

1 3/4 tsp baking powder

2 beaten eggs

3 tbsp melted butter

1-1 1/4 cups of milk

Mix and sift dry ingredients.  Beat egg, add milk and butter.  Combine to make batter.  Cook pancakes.

A note from my brother who lives in the UK: As it happens, when made with English flour you get nice but not fluffy pancakes.  Canadian flour is required for fluffy.
