These are nice fluffy pancakes. So good they only need one name... Prince. Madonna. Pancakes.
In a mixing bowl, stir together:
1c water
1c soymilk
1T evaporated cane juice (sugar, available in bulk or in packages as Florida Crystals at Whole Foods)
2T canola (or soybean) oil
Then add:
2c flour (I prefer whole wheat, but all-purpose flour will work as well if you're not into the whole wheat taste.)
4t baking powder (I prefer Rumsford or Clabber Girl, as these contain no aluminum.)
1/2t salt
mix with a large spoon until lumps dissolve. Grease cooking surface with a stick of Earth Balance before pouring on batter; re-grease later if pancakes start sticking. Flip the pancake when a number of bubbles have formed and popped. Makes 6-8 good sized pancakes (enough to feed 2 or 3 people.)
Note: I've had the best results using a flat cast-iron skillet which covers two stove burners (and thus lets you make two large pancakes at once.) you can find these for around $10 at Harbor Freight Tools on the SE corner of 22nd and Craycroft. The nice features of this are that it has no edges to make flipping the pancakes difficult, it has no non-stick coating to eventually wear off, and it is so massive that it cooks the pancakes evenly, unlike thinner pans which don't distribute the heat as well. And as long as you give it a little Earth Balance from time to time, nothing will ever stick to it.
