GREAT-GRANDMOTHER'S PANCAKE/WAFFLE BATTER

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients well.
• Add wet ingredients one at a time, in order listed, stirring well after each addition.
• Mixture will probably still be a little lumpy-- as long as flour is fully incorporated, this is not a problem.
• Cover batter and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat ungreased electric skillet or griddle to 400 degrees.
• Spoon pancake batter into skillet.
• (We like them'silver dollar' size-- about 2 tablespoons of batter).
• Cook until bubbles on the top disappear and bottom is nicely-browned and can be lifted easily with a spatula (approximately 3 minutes).
• Flip, and cook on other side until done.
• The batter is also wonderful for waffles-- just follow manufacturer's instructions regarding the setting to use, the volume your waffle iron will hold, etc.
• Serve hot, with butter and syrup (or sugar, or powdered sugar, or molasses, or sorghum, or fruit or whatever turns your tastebuds on).

• *Batter needs to be somewhat thin. Add more water if necessary.
• Waffle iron has to be good and hot before pouring in the batter. Waffles are done when steam stops (if the waffle iron is hot enough, you should be able to hear the waffles steam. You may also see steam around the edges of it. Be careful!).
