These pancakes are not too thick, not too thin, but tender, light, buttery and yummy! A healthier version will be to cut down butter to 2 tablespoons (28g), 2 egg whites instead of 1 whole egg and 1 1/4 cups nonfat/ low fat milk instead of full cream milk.
Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add in the sugar. Make a well in the centre and pour in the milk, egg and melted butter. Mix until smooth.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or pancake pan over medium heat. I use butter to enhance the old fashion flavour. Pour about 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle or pan. Brown them on both sides.
Serve hot with butter and maple syrup. You can also top them with strawberry – raspberry jam.
