Mom's Homemade Pancakes

INGREDIENTS:

3 c. All-Purpose flour

4 t. baking powder

1 t. salt

2 T. white sugar

2 1/2 c. milk

2 eggs

6 T. melted butter

1 1/2 t. vanilla

DIRECTIONS:

1.     Begin by melting butter in a small saucepan on low heat.

2.     In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.  Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg and melted butter; mix until smooth.

3.     Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat.  Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 c. for each pancake (I use a little less than that).  Brown on both sides and serve hot.

*For thicker pancakes, use less liquid.  For thinner pancakes, use more liquid.
