Pancakes or Waffles from Scratch

These are really good. I don't love the extra work, having to separate egg whites from eggs, but it's nice to have in case you go to make pancakes one morning and figure out too late, that you're out of Bisquick!

2 c. flour
4 tsp. baking powder
2 Tbsp. sugar
1/3 c. oil
1 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 3/4 - 2 c. milk (depending on how thick you like your pancakes)

Directions: Sift together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Set aside. Separate egg white from the yolk and put the white in a separate b owl. Mix egg yolk, milk and oil. Whip egg white in separate bowl, until fluffy. Mix oil/milk/yolk mixture with dry ingredients. Then, fold in the whipped egg white. Cook on low/medium heat. *Note Whipping the egg white makes the pancakes really fluffy.
