1 1/4 c. flour

2 – 3 t. salt

1 scant T. baking powder

1 1/4 c. milk (or any mix of rice milk, cream, water)

3 T. oil

1 egg

In a mixing bowl sift together dry ingredients; make a well. In a separate bowl, whisk together all wet ingredients. Combine wet and dry ingredients, whisking quickly until only tiny “lumps” remain, but not until completely smooth or the pancakes will be tough.

Heat a heavy skillet until water drops dance around or sizzle, but not so they evaporate immediately. Make as you like.
