We frankly think these are the best pancakes we've ever had. They're
fluffy, flavorful and are perfect with maple syrup or the scrumptious
Blueberry-Orange Sauce below. And they're so easy to make.
1 cup unbleached white flour (or split it and use half whole wheat flour)
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1-cup soymilk or rice milk
2-1/2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons liquid sweetener, such as maple syrup, apple juice
concentrate, barley malt, or rice syrup
Combine flours, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
Combine milk, 2 Tablespoons of the oil, and sweetener in a separate bowl.
Add milk mixture to flour mixture and mix just until moistened; a few
lumps are okay. (Don't overbeat, or pancakes will be tough.)
Heat a nonstick griddle or frying pan over medium high flame until a few
drops of water drizzled onto it forms beads and bounces around. Pour
remaining 1/2 Tablespoon of oil onto the griddle and heat until hot.
Pour batter onto the griddle to form circles about 4 inches in diameter.
Cook the pancakes for a minute or 2 on one side. When bubbles appear on
the surface, slide a spatula under the pancake and flip it over. Cook
the pancakes on the other side for another 1 or 2 minutes. Continue
until golden brown on each side, about 4 minutes in all. Makes about 8
pancakes.
Variations: Try adding a handful of fresh blueberries, chopped peaches,
pears, or apples, raisins, walnuts, pecans, or chocolate chips to your
pancakes. A dash of cinnamon in the batter is nice, too.
