simplest buttermilk pancakes

This morning, I received a rejection email from Pancake Parlour re: my application for a waitressing job with them.

Sad, I made some buttermilk pancakes to console myself.

They were really simple to make.  And they were fluffy and yummy.  I felt better.

Great with honey, maple syrup, butter or homemade strawberry jam.

Simplest Buttermilk Pancakes

(makes about 10 5-inch pancakes)

1 1/2 cups of self raising flour

2 tablespoons sugar

375 ml buttermilk

1 large egg, lightly beaten

2 tablespoons melted butter

Sift flour into a large bowl.  Add in all the other ingredients and beat until batter is of a smooth consistency.

Heat a hot pan with a little butter.  Pour a small ladle-full of batter into the pan and cook for about 1-2 minutes until bubbles appear in the batter.  Check underside of pancake and flip when nicely brown.  Cook another 1-2 minutes until both sides are equally browned.

Repeat until batter finishes.

Serve hot with butter, maple syrup, honey or jam.  Or anything you wish.
