Hunter's Pancakes

My sister's family spent the night with us last night, and our 5 kids are happily running around the house. My brother-in-law treated us to his super yummy homemade pancakes. He even made Mickey Mouse pancakes for the kids! Here's the recipe:

1.25 cups all-purpose flour
1.25 cups buttermilk (if batter is too thick, add a little more after mixed together)
1/4 cup sugar
1t. vanilla
1t. baking soda
1t baking powder
1 egg
1/4 cup oil
Optional: 1T of brown sugar

Mix thoroughly and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Heat griddle to 325. Pour by 1/4 c onto griddle and let cook until bubbles form on surface and edges look slightly dry. Flip and cook for another minute. Serve with or without syrup.

Variations:
Sugar & spice: 1t cinnamon and 1t pumpkin pie spice
Blueberry: 1T blueberries on top of each pancake, then flip
