1 c buttermilk (or sour milk)
2 T oil (or melted shortening)
1 c flour
1 t baking powder
1/2 t salt
1 egg
1 T sugar
1/2 t baking soda
Blend the egg with the buttermilk and oil. Blend the dry ingredients and stir them into the liquids. Beat by hand just until moist. Batter will be lumpy, do not over mix.
Pour 3/4 c mix onto a hot, oiled griddle. When the air bubbles all start to pop it's time to flip it. Cook until a warm golden color. Serve with syrup and butter. Bacon and coffee on the side too of course! *grin*
