Mom's fluffy pancakes

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Egg
2 cups Flour
1½ cup Skim milk
2 tablespoons Packed brown sugar; or granulated
4 tablespoons Vegetable oil
3 teaspoons Baking powder
¾ teaspoon Baking soda
1½ teaspoon Cream of tartar
½ teaspoon Salt
Vegetable oil for cooking

Directions

Beat eggs with hand beater in large bowl until fluffy. Beat in remaining ingredients except vegetable oil for cooking, until smooth (beat by hand).

For thinner pancakes, stir in additional 1 - 2 tablespoons milk. Heat griddle or skillet over medium heat or to 375. Grease griddle with oil if necessary. Pour batter onto hot griddle. Cook pancakes until puffed and dry around edges. Turn and cook other side until golden brown.

NOTES : The original recipe calls for 6 teaspoons of baking powder. All I had was 3 teaspoons of powder so made the substitution of baking soda and cream of tartar for the remaining three teaspoons. It produces a very airy batter and cooks really fluffy pancakes.
