Ingredients

Pancake mix:

4 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sugar

Pancake batter:

1 egg
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon melted butter

For the pancake mix:

Directions

Mix the above ingredients together and store in a jar.

For the pancake batter:

For each 1 cup pancake mix, add 1 egg, 1 cup milk, and 1 tablespoon melted butter. Do not overmix.

Heat a flat griddle or pan over medium-high heat.

Spoon drops of 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot griddle and when bubbles appear on the surface of the little pancakes, flip them over to make them golden brown on both sides. A minute or so a side should do it.

Throw Away the Box!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Well, first of off, I cut the recipe in 1/4 and found that I had to add a bit more milk to get it to the consistency to where... I wanted it. Secondly, I didn't have any baking soda so I totally skipped it and they STILL came out awesome. Lastly, I added some lemon extract for a little flavoring and WOW! I also added the blueberries in the pancake mix instead of making the blueberry syrup because I had no maple syrup. Let me tell you, no matter how you play around with this recipe, you will never go back to box again. DELICIOUS!Read more

My children have not gone back to the mix from a box since I have made this recipe. The only thing I changed was using cake... flour instead of all purpose flour. Read more

The best pancakes ever!!!!!!!!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My kids love these pancakes!! My kids friends love these pancakes!!! I always use very good vanilla in the batter and they... come out great!! My kids get pancakes almost every morning. It' what they ask for. The blueberry syrup is very easy and very tasty. The first batch that I made, came out very thin. So the next time I made them I mixed the dry ingredients very well. When it came time to make the batter, I mixed the egg, milk and butter together then added the dry only until incorperated (leaving lumps). I found that if you leave the batter for a couple of minutes before dropping it into the pan you get a better result. Read more
