Ingredients

Directions

Step #1 Mix dry ingredients & sift.
Step #2 Make a mound & place hole in the center.
Step #3 Add the liquid ingredients & mix well.
Step #4 Pour 1/4 c batter for one pancake.
Step #5 The consistency should be thin enough that you do not need to touch the batter once you pour it.
Step #6 This pancake will rise.
Step #7 Use the ingredients specified.
Step #8 Adjustment of other ingredients WILL change the taste but so far as I have noted not the texture.
Step #9 Use lard or bacon grease on the skillet or griddle.
Step #10 This is not a pam or oil recipe.
Step #11 If you must reduce the amount of grease wipe rapidly with a paper towel to remove.
Step #12 The skillet should be so hot a drop of water dances on it.
Step #13 IF you leave this overlong it will get a dark brown or black that means it browns rapidly.
Step #14 IT should bubble around the edges.
Step #15 Flip & watch the rise of the pancake to know when it is done.
Step #16 I suggest making a few small ones until you get the knack for this.
Step #17 Yes it is 4 tsp baking powder, no it is NOT a typo so don't ask.
Step #18 Yes it needs that.
Step #19 Serve with a pat of fresh butter & your favorite syrup.
