Makes 12.
Note: Use less liquid for thicker batter and pancakes, more liquid for thinner. You're the boss. From James P. Dewan.
• 2 c. all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• Pinch salt
• 1 1/2 c. milk
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1 stick (1/2 c.) butter, melted
• Butter, unmelted, as needed
• Maple syrup, as needed
• Sautéed apples (see recipe)
Directions
Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine milk, eggs and melted butter.
Pour liquid into flour mixture, and combine with a rubber spatula or whisk until just blended. Do not overmix.
Pour desired amount of batter onto a greased hot griddle or cast iron skillet and cook until bubbles form on top and just begin to pop. Flip pancakes and cook on other side until done, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately with butter, maple syrup and sautéed apples.
