Pancakes

Preheat griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat while you make the batter.

Beat together the milk and egg yolks.

Mix the dry ingredients.

Beat the egg whites with a whisk or electric mixer until stiff but not dry.

Combine the dry ingredients and milk-yolk mixture, stirring to blend.

Gently fold in the beaten egg whites; they should remain somewhat distinct in the batter. Add about 1 teaspoon of butter or oil to the griddle or skillet and, when it is hot, add the batter by the heaping tablespoon, making sure to include some of the egg whites in each spoonful. Cook until lightly browned on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes, then turn and cook until the second side is brown.

Serve, or hold in a 200 degree oven for up to 15 minutes.
