Pancakes for one

Breakfast is my favorite meal. Growing up my dad often made us breakfast for dinner. Omelettes, waffles, eggs and pancakes were the stars of these meals.

As a lover of bread and all things baked and sweet, waffles and pancakes were my favorite.

To this day I have the hardest time choosing sweet or savory for brunch. Logically I know I should have protein and veges but my tummy wants pillowy pancakes drenched in syrup!

Sometimes in the mornings when I should be making oatmeal I get crazy and make this tiny batch of pancakes just for me. I think you should make them too.

Pancakes For One

Makes 6 small or 3 "normal" pancakes

1/2 c all purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tap baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 tsp vegetable oil

In a small bowl whisk the dry ingredients together. In a separate small bowl whisk the wet ingredients together.

Pour the wet ingredients over the wet and stir gently to combine. Do not over mix.

Heat a small skillet on medium and use a small amount of butter or cooking spray in the pan.

When the pan is hot drop equal amounts of batter into pan for 3 small pancakes. Cook until golden brown and batter begins to bubble. Flip over and cook other side until golden.

Repeat process for remaining batter. Top with favorites - butter, syrup, jam.

Enjoy!
