I looked for a new pancake recipe because I’ve always made them with Bisquick (other than one time in 9th grade Home-Economics when we made them from scratch). Tonight the pancakes were made from scratch and oh were they yummy! Perfect and fluffy, and because I was cooking them they didn’t get overly brown. I am strange when it comes to breads of any kind. I do not like brown and crunchy. I know, I’m weird.
We also had bacon, scrambled eggs and hash browns. Here’s another weird thing about me. I cook my bacon in the microwave because it isn’t as greasy that way. I like crisp, non-greasy bacon. I have this cool plate you microwave the bacon on and it makes clean up so easy! The hash browns were just something I threw together.
This is what I call comfort food!
Pancakes
Source: allrecipes.com, my additions/changes in italics
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp white sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup milk
1 egg
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
Preheat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Make a well in the center. In a separate bowl, beat together egg, milk, vanilla and oil. Pour milk mixture into flour mixture. Beat until smooth.
Pour or scoop the batter onto the hot griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

I remember sometimes when my dad was out of town my mom would make us breakfast for dinner and we'd all crawl into my parents bed and watch movies!
I think breakfast for dinner is great! My friend in Italy even has a special word for it. Hmmmm.... I have to think up what's for dinner tonight! Maybe! I haven't tried pancakes other than Bisquick either.
