Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup milk (or non-dairy alternative)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Rest the batter: Let the batter sit for 5-10 minutes to ensure fluffiness.
- Heat the pan: Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
- Cook the pancakes: Use a teaspoon or piping bag to pour small circles of batter (2-3 inches) onto the cooking surface. Cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbles form, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve and enjoy: Stack or skewer the pancakes and add your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
Notes
- For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest longer.
- Use a piping bag for perfectly round pancakes.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 2 months
