PANCAKE?

Who wants a pancake,
Sweet and piping hot?
Good little Grace looks up and says,
"I'll take the one on top."
Who else wants a pancake,
Fresh off the griddle?
Terrible Teresa smiles and says,
"I'll take the one in the middle."

—Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends

Makes about 8 pancakes

• 2 eggs, separated

• 2 tablespoons sugar

• 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

• 1 tablespoon applesauce

• 4 teaspoons baking powder

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 2 cups milk

• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

• Bananas

• Maple syrup

1. Beat the egg whites and sugar together in a large bowl. Add the egg yolks, flour, oil, applesauce, baking powder, salt, milk, and vanilla and mix until the batter is nearly smooth. Some small lumps will remain. Spoon the batter onto a greased hot griddle heated to about 375¡ (medium-high heat), making pancakes a manageable size. Flip each pancake when the batter is bubbled over the entire top and the edges are slightly dry (should take about 2 to 3 minutes). Cook the bottom until golden brown, about 1 minute.




2. Serve topped with butter or margarine, sliced bananas, and maple syrup.

Variation: Stir 1 cup of fresh blueberries into batter for blueberry pancakes.
