Ingredients

1 7 oz pkg muffin mix any flavor
2/3 cup 2% milk
1 large egg

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. The skillet's hot enough when a couple drops of water sprinkled on sizzle and disappear almost immediately. Coat the hot skillet generously with non stick cooking spray.
Add the ingredients to a medium sized mixing bowl. Whisk together just until large lumps are gone- the batter will still be a bit lumpy.
Pour 1/8 cup of pancake batter out onto the hot skillet. You should be able to fit 3-4 pancakes on the skillet at a time, but make sure to allow room for spreading.
Cook the pancakes for 1-2 minutes, just until small bubbles begin to form & break on the surface. Using a spatula, quickly flip all of the pancakes over. Continue cooking another 1-2 minutes, until both sides are golden brown and the center's cooked through. Remove the pancakes to a waiting plate.
Repeat until all the batter's been used.
Serve the pancakes warm with pats of butter and syrup, if desired.

Notes

If you are using an electric griddle, heat it to 350-375 degrees.
Be careful not to overmix the batter. You only want to mix until the largest lumps disappear. Overmixing will lead to chewy pancakes instead of the fluffy end results you want.
Have fun with the muffin mix flavors! You could do chocolate, chocolate chip, blueberry....whatever you like!
