Rod's Fluffy Pancakes
(adapted from allrecipes)
3/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
Combine milk and vinegar and set aside for 5 minutes (this is to make your own buttermilk).
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk soured milk, egg, butter, and vanilla until combined then add to flour mixture. Don't over mix, or they won't be as tender and fluffy. Small lumps are ok.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray if necessary (if you use a non-stick pan it isn't necessary). Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to ladle on to skillet and cook until bubbles form at the top. Flip and cook until evenly browned on other side.
*I have been known to substitute at least half whole wheat flour and brown sugar, and add a little cinnamon to this recipe. Its great!
