1 c. self rising flour (if using regular flour add 1 tsp. baking powder)
1 egg
1/2 - 2/3 c. milk
3/4 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. sugar
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Blend in blender or mix by hand until it's thick and smooth. Melt 1 to 2 tablespoons Crisco in fry pan. Pour pancake mixture into pan, usually 3 pancakes fit in 11" fry pan. The key to fluffy pancakes is to put them into hot skillet, then turn the heat down very low and cook them slowly. When bubbles start to form almost to the top, flip them and cook the other side until brown. Try different varieties. Use wheat flour rather than white or add blueberries. Makes 7 to 8 pancakes.
