This recipe, found on the Trader Joes all-purpose flour bag, makes the most perfect, pillowy pancakes. Top them with fresh fruit, chocolate chips, butter or anything else your heart desires.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1-1/2 cups all purpose flour

  • 3-1/2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 3/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

  • 1-1/4 cups milk

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted

 

INSTRUCTIONS

1) In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg and melted butter and vanilla; mix until smooth.

2) Heat a lightly oiled (I used butter--but make sure your griddle's not too hot) griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides (tip: flip when they start to bubble) and serve hot. Yields about 6-8 pancakes.
