My Favorite Pancakes

2 cups flour

1-1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 tbsp. sugar

2 eggs

*2 cups buttermilk or sour milk (I just add2 tbsps. Lemon juice or vinegar to the milk)

1/4 cups oil

chocolate chips (optional)

Mix dry ingredients well. Combine with buttermilk, eggs, and oil. Let stand for 5 minutes. If you would like, add chocolate chips (I just sprinkle them on top when cooking, but you can also stir them in.)

*You can make sour milk by addin1 tbsps. of white vinegar or lemon juice to each cup of milk  Let the mixture stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.  It is ready when the milk is mixture is slightly thickened and a little bit curdled. 

You can also substitute buttermilk with
Yogurt:  3/4 cup plain yogurt with 1/4 cup water.
Sour Cream:  2/4 cup sour cream with 1/4 cup water.
