Buttermilk Pancakes

My kids ask for these almost every morning. They are very easy to make. If you don't have buttermilk, just mix one tablespoon of lemon juice in one cup of milk and let sit for 5 minutes. Even now with Chase's gluten sensitivity, I can still make these pancakes - I just use a mixture of rice, tapioca and potato flour - he can't tell the difference! These pancakes also freeze very well - I make a double or triple batch most times and freeze the extras.

1 cup flour
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 beaten egg
1 cup buttermilk
2 Tbsp. cooking oil

Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make a well in center of flour mixture; set aside. Combine the egg, buttermilk, and oil. Add egg mixture all at once to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened.

For standard-size pancakes, pour or spread about 1/4 cup batter into a 3-inch circle onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet. For dollar-size pancakes, pour or spread about 1 tablespoon batter into a 1-inch circle onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet. Cook over medium heat about 2 minutes on each side or until pancakes are golden brown, turning to second sides when pancakes have bubbly surfaces and edges are slightly dry.
