Ambrosia Pancakes With Orange Syrup Recipe

In a medium mixing bowl, beat egg until fluffy. Add remaining ingredients, except shortening, and beat just until smooth. For thinner pancakes, stir in additional 1 to 2 tablespoons milk.

Heat griddle or skillet over medium heat or to 375F (190C). Grease griddle with shortening, if necessary. Griddle is ready when a few drops of water bubble and skitter rapidly around.

For each pancake, pour scant 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle. Cook pancakes until puffed and dry around edges. Turn and cook other sides until golden brown.

Recipe can be doubled.

Syrup: Combine ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook until thoroughly heated.
