- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (or a dairy-free alternative)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (or vegetable oil)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Maple syrup
- Fresh fruits (e.g., berries, bananas)
- Whipped cream
- Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, pecans)
- Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Heat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can lightly grease the pan with cooking spray or a little butter if needed.
- Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, and the edges look set (about 2-3 minutes). Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Keep Warm: Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and cover them with a kitchen towel to keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.
- Serve: Serve pancakes warm with your choice of toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruits, whipped cream, or nuts.
