Old-Fashioned Pancakes
Pancakes can be made competently over a shining flat-top in a four-star restaurant or in a battered cast-iron skillet over a banked campfire. All you need is a spatula, a steady hand, and, most importantly, a good recipe.
This recipe is as simple as any, except for perhaps the addition of rice milk, which is more kidney-friendly than cow’s milk. But you’ll enjoy these fluffy golden beauties for a lovely breakfast.

Cooking Tip
If you have leftover pancakes, let them cool completely and place them in a resealable plastic bag in the refrigerator. When you want to enjoy them, try them cold, or toast them in a toaster.
