Buttermilk Griddle Cakes

Description: These are lighter and fluffier than regular pancakes. I've tried other pancake recipes, but this has been a favorite in our home for years!

Ingredients:

• 1 large egg
• 1 cup buttermilk or 1 cup soured milk
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 ounces margarine or 2 ounces oil, melted

Steps:

1. In a bowl, beat egg and buttermilk together.
2. Sift dry ingredients and stir them into the egg mixture.
3. Whisk in melted margarine or oil (if mixture is very thick, add a little milk).
4. Heat a heavy griddle or frying pan and lightly grease.
5. Pour by 1/4 cup measures, and cook until bubbles form and the griddle cakes begin to look dry.
6. Turn and cook on other side.
