Quick and Easy Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1 large egg
• 5 teaspoons sugar
• 1 1/3 cups milk
• 1 cup flour
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil (optional)

Directions

1. 1

   In a bowl or mixing jug, whisk together egg, sugar and half of milk (2/3 cup).

2. 2

   Add the flour and mix throughly.

3. 3

   Then add remaining milk (2/3 cup) and baking powder. It should be the consistency of thick cream.

4. 4

   (Optional): Add 1-1/2 tsp oil if you have trouble with sticking.

5. 5

   Beat until smooth.

6. 6

   Pour about a soup spoon sized amount onto a pre-heated lightly greased frying pan or griddle (You will need to start about medium high heat but after a few rounds you will need to drop it back to medium).

7. 7

   Flip with a spatula when the top is all bubbly (should be a lovely golden colour), and cook the other side (~45 seconds/side depending on stovetop).

8. 8

   Remove from pan and pile up on a plate (cover with a paper towel until served).

9. 9

   Serve with whatever you like and enjoy.
