Dead-Simple Pancakes
Posted on 17 Mar 2015Pancakes, who doesn’t love em? So I’ll share my easy pancake recipe –which is a few steps simpler and requires a bit less effort than my other recipe/method. Plus, I use a set of ratios that is easy to remember. 1 cup each flour & milk, 1 tablespoon each sugar & baking powder + 1 egg. Combine all, fry in butter.
Yes, that is peanut butter and maple syrup –don’t knock it ‘til you try it.
