Bisquick isn't for this Betty

Don't buy anymore Bisquick, you don't need it! If your kids LOVE pancakes as much as mine do, you already have everything you need to make homemade, wonderful, fluffly, delectable pancakes right in your pantry!

This recipe can be varied in many ways. Throw some blueberries, chocolate chips, or bananas in there! I like to make a batch of pancake batter on Monday and then I have it all week! This is a Mimi trick-of-the-trade. Homemade, hot breakfast everyday and little to no work. I also use a Mickey Mouse waffler which makes better pancakes than waffles. If you want to do it the old fashioned way, then just watch for the little bubbles before you flip these bad boys.

Better Than Bisquick Pancakes

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (you can easily mix half wheat flour with this if you like)
• 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1 1/4 cups milk (whole milk does work best here)
• 1 egg
• 3 tablespoons butter, melted

In a large bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Make a well in center and add milk, egg, & butter. Whisk together. Cook with your preferred method of griddle, frying pan, or Mickey Mouse waffler! If you're dining with my five year old then you'll enjoy your Mickey Mouse pancake with a little butter, a lot of syrup, turkey sausage links and fresh fruit. Have a great morning!
