Servings & Timing
Serves: 6–8 pancakes
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients List
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 cup milk (or buttermilk for extra fluff)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus extra for cooking)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. - Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. - Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—the batter should remain slightly lumpy, as overmixing can make the pancakes dense. - Heat the Pan
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil to prevent sticking. - Cook the Pancakes
Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to look set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1–2 minutes until both sides are golden brown. - Serve
Stack your pancakes and serve immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream, or a pat of butter.
