Each batch makes about 6 big pancakes.

  1. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make a well in center of flour mixture; set aside. Combine the egg, buttermilk, and oil. Add egg mixture all at once to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be lumpy). Add additional buttermilk to thin batter, if necessary.
  2. For standard-size pancakes, pour or spread about \( \frac{1}{4} \) cup batter into a 3-inch circle onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet. For dolar-size pancakes, pour or spread about 1 tablespoon batter into a 1-inch circle onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet. Cook over medium heat about 2 minutes on each side or until pancakes are golden brown, turning to second sides when pancakes have bubbly surfaces and edges are slightly dry. Serve warm.
Tip: Making Sour Milk

For each cup of sour milk needed, place 1 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar in a glass measuring cup. Add enough milk to make 1 cup total; stir. Let mixture stand for 5 minutes before using.
