Pancakes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 egg
1 c. all-purpose flour
3/4 c. milk
1 Tbsp. sugar
2 Tbsp. shortening, melted
3 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Preparation

Beat egg with hand beater until fluffy.
Beat in remaining ingredients just until smooth.
For thinner pancakes, stir in additional 1/4 cup milk.
Grease heated griddle if necessary.
(To test griddle, sprinkle with a few drops of water; if bubbles skitter around, heat is just right.)
Pour batter onto hot griddle. Cook pancakes until puffed and dry around edges.
Turn over and cook other side until golden brown.
