Breakfast

This morning I made pancakes and candied bacon.

It's easy.

To start the bacon take 2 cookie sheets of the same type and cover one with aluminum foil. Place as many pieces of bacon as you like on the foil and sprinkle them with brown sugar..a little cinnamon too if you feel adventurous. Some folks add maple syrup as well. Take the other cookie sheet and place it on top of the bacon like you were stacking the cookie sheets together.

Place in a 350 degree oven in the middle rack..for thick bacon 3o minutes should do. For regular thin sliced 15 to 20 minutes. If they need a bit more time you can take off the top pan and broil for a min or so but watch them carefully!

Pancakes:

1 cup flour

1 egg

3 tsp baking powder

3/4 cup milk

1/4 tsp salt

1 Tsb brown sugar

3 tbs vegetable oil

Beat the egg in a large bowl and then mix in the other ingredients until combined..but don't over mix.

At this point you can add chopped bananas, walnuts blueberries, or whatever. If you add something with a lot of moisture add a bit more flour.

In a non stick skillet or (well seasoned cast iron)melt a little butter on medium heat and pour about 1/3 cup batter into the pan for each pancake...they are ready to flip when you see bubbles form on top and the edge gets a little crispy.

Enjoy.
