Rosa Parks Featherlight Pancake Recipe

To honor Mrs. Parks birthday today, I made her Featherlight Pancake recipe. They are light and delicious – just like the name of the recipe! 😋

Rosa Parks Featherlight Pancake Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons baking powder

¼ teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons sugar

1 egg

1¼ cups whole milk

1/3 cup peanut butter

1 tablespoon shortening, melted, or any neutral oil, like canola (I used butter!)

Directions

In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and mix.

In a separate bowl, combine the egg, whole milk, and peanut butter. Whisk together until combined.

Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and mix well until combined.

Add the shortening or oil to a skillet and melt. Spoon about one-fifth of the batter into the pan and make into a 4-inch pancake.

Cook for about 2 minutes until golden or bubbles form around the edges.

Use a spatula to gently lift the pancake and flip over to the other side.

Cook for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes until cooked through and golden-brown.

Repeat with the rest of the batter and serve warm with butter and syrup.
