I can't believe I've been blogging for about a year and have yet to post a true breakfast recipe! I am definitely a breakfast person. Most mornings, I don't think I'd get out of bed if it were not the allure of breakfast calling me out from under my warm and cozy blankets. Not to mention the fact I'd be a shaky, cranky mess come noon if breakfast weren't part of my day. So I've never been able to understand the people who don't eat breakfast. So for all you non breakfast people out there, if you had this stack of pancakes to wake up to, you'd probably hop out of bed a little quicker now wouldn't you? What if I told you whipping up a stack was a cinch and takes hardly any time at all?
Pancakes are so easy and quick, they are really idiot proof. If you can mix, you can make these. I like to assemble the dry ingredients the night before so that all I have to do is add the wet ingredients, mix and cook. This batch makes about 12 pancakes. I like to make the whole batch on a weekend and freeze the leftover pancakes to eat for the rest of the week. All you need to do to to have them during the week is take out of the freezer and pop in the toaster (I sometimes put it through twice to heat it up all the way through) and voila! Pancakes for the week! Getting up has never been so easy!
Pancakes
1 3/4 cups flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 1/2 cups milk
3 tablespoons cooking oil
In a large bowl, stir flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In a medium bowl, beat egg slightly; stir in milk and oil. Add egg mixture to flour mixture all at once. Stir until slightly lumpy. Pour onto a lightly greased pan. (I use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to make the pancakes uniform size.) Turn when pancakes start to bubble.
