Grandad’s Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk, at room temperature
• 1 egg, at room temperature
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 2 teaspoons oil, or as needed

Directions

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; make a 'well' in the center of the flour mixture. Pour milk, eggs, and 1 tablespoon oil into the well. Mix until well moistened.

Place a griddle over medium-high heat; sprinkle a few drops of water onto the griddle. If the droplets bounce, the griddle is ready; add 2 teaspoons oil.

Spoon batter onto the griddle; cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 3 to 5 more minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
