Wonderland Pancakes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 tsp. baking powder
1 c. sifted all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 c. milk
1 Tbsp. salad oil
3 or 4 Tbsp. butter or margarine

Preparation

Sift the baking powder, flour and salt together into a large mixing bowl.
Break the egg into the bowl; add the milk and stir until the batter is smooth (you can beat the batter with an eggbeater instead if you like).
Add the oil and mix.
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Tilt the skillet to cover the bottom with the melted butter.
Pour in the batter a little at a time to make circles about 2 1/2 inches across.
Make sure you leave room between the pancakes; be careful because the batter spreads out.
When the pancakes are full of bubbles, but before the bubbles burst, turn them with a pancake turner.
Cook until the bottoms are browned.
Use the pancake turner to remove them from the skillet and stack them up on a plate.
Cover the plate loosely with aluminum foil to help keep the pancakes hot.
Melt another tablespoon of butter in the skillet and cook a second batch the same way and a fourth if you still have some batter left.
