We love pancakes, but don’t eat it often. I admit that we use Bisquick mix to make our pancakes. We both grew up with pancakes made that way. How were we supposed to know that you could make your own? I’ve never been that confident in the kitchen, but I’m getting better and trying new things. Thankfully, I haven’t sent anyone to the hospital with food poisoning. I’ll trying making pancakes from scratch and Bisquick and see if they can tell the difference.

This is the recipe I learned as a very young girl and had no trouble remembering:
1 c. milk
1 egg
1 tsp baking powder
I c. flour
Over the years I got a feel for when the local conditions meant that I should add an extra spoonful of flour or milk.
To make sure that they won’t stick to the pan get the pan hot before you add the oil and the oil hot before you add the batter.
In home ec. I learned that you don’t flip them until you notice that the batter on the edges is no longer liquid.
