Buttermilk Pancakes

I was still using up buttermilk, and these seemed to be the quickest way to do it.  The recipe was from allrecipes.com, which is a great site because you can scale any recipe to serve just how much you need.

Pancakes are easy, and people like them.  Best reason to make them.

2 C flour
2 Tb sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
*2 C buttermilk
1/3 C milk
2 eggs
1/4 C butter, melted
vegetable oil

1.  Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.  In a separate bowl, beat eggs.  Add buttermilk, milk, and butter and beat together.

2.  Preheat frying pan or pancake griddle.  Grease lightly with oil.

3.  Stir together wet & dry ingredients.  Mix until just combined.  Don't worry if there are still some dry lumps; they will disappear before you get to the bottom of the bowl.

4.  Spoon 1/4 C of batter onto griddle for each pancake.  Let cook until bubbles stop coming up and underside is lightly browned, about 2-3 minutes.  Flip and cook other side until lightly browned.  Transfer to warm platter, re-oil griddle, and go at it again.  Repeat until all batter is used.  Do not store batter to use later; it will not rise.

Makes about 2-1/2 dozen
