1 & 1/2 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup melted margarine or butter

PANCAKES

2 cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
2 cups milk
vegetable oil
 
Put flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the egg & milk & mix together. Leave set for about 5 minutes until foamy.  Preheat the griddle
Cook the pancakes on the griddle, using a bit of vegetable oil to keep them from sticking to the griddle. Turn them over when bubbles form over the entire surface of the pancake and cook for a few minutes on the other side. Serve hot with maple syrup.

 

MAPLE PANCAKE SYRUP

 
1 ½ cups brown sugar
1/2 tsp butter or margarine
3/4 cups water
Dash of Salt
½ tsp Maple favouring
 
Combine sugar, butter, water, & salt in a small sauce pan. Stir well  Bring to a full boil over medium heat.  Boil for 5 min. Remove from heat & add the Maple favouring

1/2 tsp artificial vanilla extract
1/2 tsp artificial maple extract

POTATO PANCAKES

 
3 Medium potatoes, peeled and grated
1 Small onion, finely chopped
1 Egg, lightly beaten
1 tbs Flour
1 tsp  Salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 tsp Butter
2 tsp Olive or canola oil
 
Grate potatoes by hand or use a food processor, but remember that more coarsely grated potatoes will absorb less oil than those that are finely grated. Remove as much moisture from the grated potatoes as possible by pressing between layers of paper towels.
Put the grated potatoes in a bowl and add the chopped onion, egg, salt and pepper, and sprinkle in the flour. Mix well.
 
Over medium heat, melt 1 tbs each of the butter and oil in a large skillet. Pack a 1/4 measuring cup with potato mixture and put into the pan (you can comfortably fry 4 pancakes at a time). Press each little mound into a 3" to 4" pancake with a pancake turner. Brown on both sides. Remove, place on paper towels and keep warm.
 
Add the remaining butter and oil to the pan and repeat the procedure for the remaining pancakes. If you need to add a little more butter and oil, do so. The pancakes won't turn that lovely golden brown in a dry skillet.
(It's also a good idea to stir up the raw potato batter between batches so
the liquid doesn't accumulate in the bottom of the bowl.)  Makes  8 or 10 pancakes.
