Here’s a simple, fluffy, and classic pancake recipe you can make from scratch:
🥞 Classic Fluffy Pancakes
🔹 Ingredients (makes ~4–6 pancakes)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
🔹 Instructions
1. Mix dry ingredients
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt
2. Mix wet ingredients
- In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla
3. Combine
- Pour wet into dry
- Stir gently until just combined (a few lumps are fine—don’t overmix)
4. Cook the pancakes
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat
- Lightly butter the pan
- Pour ¼ cup batter per pancake
- Cook until bubbles form on top (~2–3 min), then flip and cook another 1–2 min
5. Serve
- Stack pancakes
- Top with maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or butter
🔹 Tips for Extra Fluffy Pancakes
- Don’t overmix the batter
- Let the batter rest 5–10 minutes before cooking
- Use medium heat—too high burns the outside before the inside cooks
