Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (or oil)
- Optional: Vanilla extract for flavor
Instructions
- 1. Prepare the Dry Mix – In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- 2. Combine Wet Ingredients – In another bowl, beat the egg and then add milk and melted butter. If you like, you can add a splash of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- 3. Mix Together – Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay!
- 4.Heat the Pan – Preheat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. You can lightly grease the pan with a little butter or oil if needed.
- 5. Cook the Pancakes – Pour a ladle of batter onto the hot skillet. Cook until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
- 6. Serve Hot – Stack your pancakes on a plate and serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fruits, or whipped cream.
Tips
- For extra fluffiness, let the batter sit for a few minutes before cooking.
- Experiment with different toppings such as chocolate chips, fruits, or nuts to keep it interesting.
- Ensure your pan is at the right temperature; too hot can burn the pancakes while too cold will make them tough.
