55 : Pancakes y Hotcakes (Arepas)

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cup flour
1 1/2 teaspoon double acting baking powder
1 Tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 1/4 cup milk
2 Tablespoons butter

1. Sift the dry ingredients.

2. Beat the egg with the milk and melted butter.
3. Add the wet to the dry ingredients and mix well.

4. Heat a greased skillet and pour in the pancake batter, forming 3" - 4" circles, approximately.  (note: this was my first try at making pancakes with Nitza's recipe.  Please excuse the non-circles.)

5. When you see bubbles form throughout the top of the pancake, flip to the other side to finish cooking.

Makes approximately 16 medium-sized pancakes.
