Here’s a classic, fluffy pancake recipe — perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a weekend treat.
🥞 Classic Pancakes (Makes ~8–10 pancakes)
Ingredients
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1¼ cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
1️⃣ Mix dry ingredients
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
2️⃣ Mix wet ingredients
- In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.
3️⃣ Combine
- Pour wet ingredients into dry. Stir gently until just combined — batter should be slightly lumpy. Do not overmix.
4️⃣ Cook pancakes
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Grease lightly with butter.
- Pour about ¼ cup batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, edges look set (2–3 minutes), then flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.
5️⃣ Serve
- Serve warm with butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
🔥 Tips for Fluffy Pancakes
- Let batter rest 5–10 minutes before cooking.
- Use buttermilk instead of milk for extra tender, tangy pancakes.
- Add-ins: blueberries, chocolate chips, or banana slices fold in gently.
