The Recipe at sea-level:

1 1/4 cup flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or vegetable oil
1 cup milk

Preheat a skillet on Med-Hi heat, or a griddle to 375 degrees F while you mix up the batter.

Combine the dry ingredients (the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar) in a large bowl. In another bowl, beat the egg, then add the milk and oil to it. Combine the wet ingredients well, then add the egg mixture to the flour mixture. Mix until smooth.

Pour or spoon the batter onto the hot griddle. Cook pancakes until golden brown on both sides.

Serve immediately or freeze in pairs to reheat in toaster oven or microwave.
