Good Old-fashioned American Pancakes
 |
| Pancakes with butter and Maple Syrup |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 egg
1 1/4 cups milk
Sue's tip: I usually use brown sugar (açúcar mascavo) so the pancakes are sweet but not too much. And I also add 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (essência de baunilha).

| Pancakes with Chocolate Sauce |
Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
Whisk in melted butter, egg, and milk until combined. Let batter rest for 5 minutes.
Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Pour batter into the hot skillet, about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake.
Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until bubbles appear on the sides and center of each pancake.
Flip and cook until golden, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Sue's tip: Nas pancakes dessa fotinho aqui, eu ainda adicionei "chocolate chips", aquelas gotinhas de chocolate, à receita, e como não temos Maple Syrup aqui em Caxias, fiz uma calda de chocolate pra colocar por cima - que foi só derreter chocolate no microondas e adicionar um pouquinho de leite pra não endurecer mais. Na hora de servir coloquei 1 banana picada. Fácil! ;)
