1 1/4 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 beaten egg
1 c. buttermilk
2 tbsp. melted shortening or salad oil
Vanilla - 1 tsp.

Sift together flour, baking powder, sugar, soda and salt. Combine egg, buttermilk and salad oil. Add to dry ingredients, stirring just until flour is moistened. You can thin pancakes a little by adding more buttermilk. Fry on hot griddle.
