Funny Face Pancakes
You will need:
- 1 1/4 cups sifted flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar or Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon soda
- 1 beaten egg
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk (or 1 1/4 cups milk plus 4 teaspoons lemon juice)
- 2 tablespoons melted margarine
- Sifter, two mixing bowls, large spoon, measuring cups and spoons, egg beater, pancake turner
Work plan:
Sift flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and soda together into mixing bowl. In another bowl, combine beaten egg, milk and margarine, then add to dry ingredients. Stir until barely mixed. Heat lightly greased griddle or skillet. With small spoon, drop batter on hot skillet to make eyes, nose and mouth of a "funny face." Cook about a minute; pour more batter over "funny face" to make a whole pancake. Cook until bubbly on top. Turn and cook until brown; don't overcook. Makes 4 large or 6 medium pancakes.
Serve:
Make Imperial Brown Sugar Syrup by bringing 2 cups Imperial Brown Sugar and 1 cup water to boil. Simmer for 5 minutes. Makes about 11/2 cups.
Idea:
Instead of funny face, drip batter into pan to make your initial.
