Pancakes

Lifted this recipe from everything2 on Tuesday. Visit the site and do a search for pancakes to see the rest of the write up; it puts forward a pretty convincing case for the delight of making things for yourself. Put down that packet mix and get out the mixing bowl.

<ul>
<li>3 Tsp butter, melted</li>
<li>1 &#189; cups milk</li>
<li>2 large eggs</li>
<li>1 &#189; cups flour</li>
<li>3 Tsp sugar</li>
<li>&#189; tsp salt</li>
<li>1 &#189; tsp baking powder</li>
</ul>

Last minute shopping in Wolverhampton town centre highlighted a gap in the baking powder market.  Tesco Metro were sold out.  Marks and Spencers (the only other grocery store in that part of town) have a 'bakery' section, however, upon closer inspection I realised it consisted entirely of ready-made cakes in boxes. The sign appears to be a signal to people who want to <i>avoid</i> bakery. The local Indian supermarket came to the rescue on the way home - replete with baking powder, directly opposite the Halal meat.

Oh, and don't forget the Maple Syrup; it's a crucial requirement for this American style pancake.
