"MY FABULICIOUS FLAPJACKS"

With the Victoria day long weekend upon us it's time for 'The Decadent Diva' to shed those winter blues and let the fireworks fly. In the kitchen that is! Yes, folks why not commemorate the official start to the summer with this great (and simple) pancake recipe from my personal collection of favourite recipes I like to call my 'Fabulicious Flapjacks'.This tasty treat is perfect for any time of year so you just can't go wrong. Try mixing a cup of fresh blueberries in the batter (for the blueberry aficionado in your life) or top off with some strawberries or whip cream. Oh and of course don't forget the 100% pure Maple syrup. Truly Canadian! Mmmmmm...yummy! Happy eating everybody!

"FABULICIOUS FLAPJACKS"

Ingredients:
1 egg
1 tbsp granulated sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup of vegetable oil
3/4 cup of milk
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder

Directions:
Mix all ingredients thoroughly in bowl. Batter should not be stiff nor should it be runny. It should have an easy to pour consistency. Heat non-stick pan on low heat. Take ladle and pour batter in pan (the more batter the larger the pancake). When pancake starts to form bubbles carefully flip. Remove from pan when both sides turn golden colour. Stack and serve. Makes 5 medium sized pancakes.

*Double the ingredients to make more batter (ex. 2 eggs, 2 cups of flour, etc.)*
