Directions
Combin the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Then, add the oil and eggs, and pour in the milk little by little until the batter reaches a nice, pourable consistency—it’s okay if it’s a bit lumpy. Warm up a griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with a bit of oil. Scoop big spoonfuls of the batter onto the hot surface, giving them some space to spread out. Cook the pancakes until you see bubbles forming on top and the edges look set, which usually takes about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip them carefully and let the other side brown nicely, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Keep going until you’ve used up all the batter, and enjoy!
How To Plate This Dish

How To Refrigerate This Dish
Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, warm them in a toaster or microwave. For longer storage, freeze the pancakes separated by parchment paper and reheat directly from frozen.
