Any american mums on here? What is the recipe for thick american style pancakes?

[IlanaK]

I had these at a friends and fancy them for tomorow's pancake day rather than the thin british ones. But i have no idea how to make them!

Any tips?

here's a fab one

1.5 cups of flour
1 or 2 tablespoons sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
.5 teaspoons salt

combine 1 beaten egg
1 and 3/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons veg oil

add liquid ingredients to dry. beat only until combined
grease frying pan only lighty

yum yum yum
this is a Cnd one btw, but still excellent. best with maple syrup, Cdn of course!

Excellent - thanks very much!

Hana's is pretty close to mine. I've got one which is perfect every single time and makes really nice fluffy pancakes:

A 'cup' is a standard size coffee mug.

1 egg
3/4 cup of self raising flour
1/2 cup of milk
1 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
1 tbsp of melted butter
1 tbsp of vegatable oil
1 tbsp of sugar

mix together and pour a very lightly buttered, non stick pan. don't re-butter the pan. this recipe has butter in them and splooges out whilst cooking, giving a non stick characterisic to them and providing a lovely even golden brown colour.
