Pancakes for One!

Every pancake recipe I've found yields enough batter to make enough for a small village, ok maybe that's a gross overstatement, enough for a family of 4 but what do you do when only 1 person wants pancakes?!?!

I find myself making these for my daughter in the morning. Then, if there are leftovers I find them disappearing, one by one as the day progresses.....remember, moderation, moderation, moderation....

• 1C milk (full cream is best but low fat can be used)

• 1T lemon juice or white vinegar

• 1 egg

• 1T Caster Sugar

• 1 1/4C Self Rising Flour

• 1/4t Baking Soda

• 1T melted Butter

1. Measure out the milk, mix in lemon juice or vinegar, let it curdle a bit (a couple of minutes) .  Mix in the whole egg.

2. In a bowl, measure out and mix up the SR flour, sugar and baking soda.

3. Pour in the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stir lightly, then mix in the melted butter.

4. Heat up a non-stick pan. Drop in spoonfuls of the batter. Cook until bubbles appear, then flip and cook the other side. 

5. Enjoy....

Tip: Mix in or top with fruit OR have them for dinner for a change. My grandparents used to do this with sides of bacon or sausages!
