7 ingredients, 7 pancakes. For the Win!

A post from a guest today - she posted this on Facebook and I just so enjoyed it, I had to share here too. This is from Liz Fuller-Wright (with permission)

Pancakes rule the world. They're forgiving, easy, and need 7 ingredients, nearly all of which you almost certainly have. (If you've ever baked cookies in your kitchen, you're golden.) And the recipe is memorization friendly because nearly all the measurements start with 1:

1 C flour
1 T sugar
1 t baking soda
1 pinch salt
1 C milk
1 egg2 T vegetable oil

That's it. Then you mix in whatever you feel like. Today, I went with a liberal sprinkling of cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and nutmeg, a splash of vanilla, and a handful of frozen blueberries.
It makes 5-10 pancakes, depending entirely on how big you make them. When I'm at the griddle, this recipe always produces 7 pancakes.
7 ingredients. 7 pancakes.

FOR THE WIN!

S'more French Toast


Jodi's version of S'more French Toast: 

Scramble an egg with milk (almond milk works fine; so does cream, I'm sure), nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla extract to taste. 

Slice a bagel really thin. Dip into egg mix. (Rolls sliced thinly or bread works too - whatever you have on hand!)

Crush up a bunch of graham crackers (2-4), cover dipped bagel in graham crackers. (My 7 year old went to town crushing the graham crackers; it was great!)

Fry for 3 minutes on each side. When doing 2nd side, add chocolate chips. Put marshmallows in pan next to French toast and turn every 30-40 seconds to get every part of the marshmallow golden. 

Just before serving, put 2 marshmallows on top of French toast.  Serve hot with love and smiles!
