How to Make Good Old-fashioned Pancakes

Who in the world do not love pancakes for breakfast? Well, I eat pancakes on merienda (between meals).

Let me share a fact, in  United Kingdom, there is what they called as "Pancake Day", it is called such because pancakes were served everywhere, and some were for free. Pancake Day happens every Shrove Tuesday (Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday) or commonly known as the day before Ash Wednesday.

Pancakes are one of the easy-to-prepare breakfast you can offer to your family. Every countries has their own version of it. Pancake recipes are  almost known by everyone, it is also spread all over the internet, what I will share to you is my very own recipe that just boom out of my mind this morning of July 20, 2013. I called it "old fashioned pancakes".

Ingredients:
1 cup flour
3 tbsp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
a pinch of salt
half a teaspoon of cinnamon
1 cup milk (or cold water)
1 egg
2 tbsp melted butter (or cooking oil)
cooking spray or butter

Toppings:
Butter
Maple syrup (or light syrup)


Procedure:

1. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a bowl. (flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt)

2. In a separate bowl beat the egg together with the milk.

3. Combine the wet and dry ingredients together, mix well and pour the melted butter.

4. Turn on the stove into a medium-low heat.

5. Grease the non-stick pan using a cooking spray or butter and immediately pour half a cup of the batter mixture on it.

6. Flip over the pancakes when you see small bubbles on top. After less than a minute you can now take the pancake off the pan and finish cooking the remaining batter.

7. Serve it with butter and maple syrup on top.

This will make about 4 to 6 pancakes, depending on size and thickness. Enjoy!
