Equipment
- cast iron, or griddle, or pan
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups All-purpose flour
- 3 ½ teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 Tablespoon White sugar (or monk fruit sweetener)
- ¼ teaspoon Salt or more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon Allspice or cinnamon (this is optional)
- 1 teaspoon Bacon grease
- 1 ¼ cups Milk
- 3 Tablespoons Butter melted, but make sure it's not super hot
- 1 Egg
Instructions
- Stir flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl add milk, melted butter, and egg; mix until smooth.
- Then in the dry bowl make a well and add in the wet ingredents.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or pan over medium-high heat. Pancakes cook faster when the griddle or the pan is warmed up first.
- Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using about 1/4 cup for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, about 2 to 3 minutes. Might be more in high altitude. It's closer to 3 to 4 minutes.Flip and cook until browned on the other side. Repeat with the remaining batter. You can keep them warm in an oven set to Warm until they're all ready if you want.
Notes
- This is a great fluffy pancake and pretty easy to make with few ingredients so it was not so overwhelming time-consuming or difficult to make. Since we live in Colorado the batter was very thick at first and I thinned it out with some bacon grease and it added flavor to the pancake.
- Also adding in the allspice or cinnamon is just an option I found that it adds more taste and flavor for people who need to watch their blood sugar.
- I got the main idea from Allrecipes see the link below.
