Confetti Pancakes

As many of you may already know, my husband recently found out that he passed his test to become a Staff Sgt! We found out first thing in the morning, and had to celebrate! So I made pancakes that I jazzed up with some jimmies, and they were a huge hit with everyone!

Homemade Confetti Pancakes:
1 egg
2 Tbs. vegetable oil or melted butter
3/4-1 cup milk
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup flour
2 Tbs. sugar

1/4-1/2 cup sprinkles aka "jimmies"

Mix dry ingredients in a bowl. Whisk together milk, oil or butter, and egg. Mix both combinations together and stir just until mixed. Stir in sprinkles aka "jimmies"
Preheat your griddle, it is hot enough when you drip a few drops of water on and the quickly "dance" and bubble away. For medium sized pancakes, drop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle.  (For small pancakes, pour about 2 Tbs onto griddle) Cook until cakes are full of bubbles on the top and the undersides are lightly browned. Turn with a spatula and brown the other side. Place on a warm plate in an oven at 200 to keep warm until all are done and ready to serve.
*You can make these with some whole wheat flour.
*For blueberry pancakes, add 1/2 cup blueberries. *For any other fresh fruit, sprinkle a pancake with diced fresh fruit before you flip it.
