Gorditas
1 1/2 cups flour (you can also use whole wheat)
1 1/2 cups pancake mix
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 egg (beaten)
1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
1/4 to 1/2 cup hot milk
In a large bowl mix together dry ingredients. Make a well in the center and add egg. Mix well. Add butter and mix until mixture resembles small peas. Add milk starting with smaller amount and combine until a dough forms; adding more flour or milk as needed. Knead until dough is smooth and elastic. Place dough back in bowl and cover with plastic wrap to rest for around ten minutes. Heat a griddle or tortilla pan to medium heat. Remove plastic wrap and form dough into 12 small balls. Flatten balls into circles around 3-4 inches wide and about a 1/2 inch or inch thick. Cook on griddle about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown.
(If using as pancakes, you can increase the sugar a bit and add a teaspoon of vanilla for extra flavor)
