Craig's Fluffy Pancakes

This is my own recipe for pancakes. This recipe makes nice light, and quite fluffy pancakes.

Ingredients

¾ cup half-and-half

2 Tablespoons vinegar

1 cup self-rising flour

2 Tablespoons white sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

1 egg

1 Tablespoon butter, melted

Preparing the Cakes

1. In a two cup measure, combine half-and-half with vinegar then set aside to allow to curdle.
2. Combine the dry ingredients, flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt, in a large mixing bowl.
3. Whisk egg and butter into half-and-half vinegar mixture. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and whisk until mixture is smooth.
4. Heat a large skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat, and coat with cooking spray. Ideal skillet temperature is from 375°F to 390°F. Pour ¼ cup portions of batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until golden on both sides.

I like these with just a little butter on them, but they can be topped with pancake syrup, maple syrup, honey, jam, peanut butter, ketchup, or whatever you like. When I was a kid, I used to like sausage grease poured on my pancakes.
