If you're like most Americans, you get your pancakes from a box.
This is a pity, since pancakes are one of the easiest recipes to make
from scratch. All it takes is 1 cup of flour, 1 tablespoon of baking
powder, a teaspoon of sugar, a pinch of salt, a 1/4 cup of oil (never use
butter), an egg and 1 cup of milk and you can make a half-dozen fluffy homemade
pancakes. That's all there is to it.
