Recipe Introduction
Heads or Tails? It was Julius Caesar who started the practice of flipping a coin to make decisions. His own head was on one side of every Roman coin, so "heads" determined the winner in each flip. People thought "heads" meant that Caesar agreed with the decision. The coin flip was used in serious litigation involving property, marriage and even criminal guilt. Just think how many lawyers would be out of a job if we went back to this method today!

Add dry milk, beaten egg, sugar, oil, and salt. With wooden spoon, stir just until well blended. (Batter should be slightly lumpy.)
In small cup, stir together baking soda and 2 tsp. water. Gently stir baking soda mixture into batter.
Using about 1 tbsp. batter for each pancake, pour batter onto lightly greased hot griddle. Bake until tops of pancakes are covered with bubbles and edges look dry. Turn and bake until bottoms are golden brown. Serve hot.
