My favorite pancakes

We had delightful company who arrived at our house yesterday, fifteen minutes before we returned from being on the road for nine days. You know they have to be pretty special friends for that to be a welcome thing; this was MOST welcome.

This morning I had the pleasure of fixing pancakes that were loved by even the most particular of guests. What a satisfying experience. I thought I would share my pancake recipe with you, simple as it is. I am sure there are special instructions for mixing the ingredients, but I just lump them all in a bowl and mix them well. Cook as you would any pancake.

HT: The Ultimate Cookbook

I highly recommend this cookbook, as I have before. They have alternative recipes for Buttermilk Pancakes, Buckwheat Pancakes, Gingerbread Pancakes and Multigrain Pancakes, all delicious.
