In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, egg, sugar and milk. Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk all the ingredients just until barely combined. It's ok if the pancake batter is slightly lumpy. Do not over mix.3 tablespoons vegetable oil, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 1/4 cups 2% milk, 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, 3 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt
Lightly grease a skillet or griddle with cooking spray, butter, or oil and heat to about 350ºF.
Use a ladle to scoop about 1/4 cup pancake batter onto the hot griddle. Let it cook until bubbles appear and then pop on the top of the pancake. Then flip and continue to cook for another minute or two. Remove to a plate and continue with the remaining batter.
Top with your favorite pancake toppings.

Notes
One batch makes about 10 pancakes.
A thicker batter will make thick pancakes. If it is too thick, add more milk for thin pancakes.
Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave as needed.
The calories shown are based on the recipe making 10 pancakes, with 1 serving being 1 pancake. Since different brands of ingredients have different nutritional information, the calories shown are just an estimate.
