Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons (25g) sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¼ cups (300ml) milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) melted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Gradually combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until just mixed (a few lumps are okay).
  • Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it.
  • Pour ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the pan and cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2 minutes).
  • Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  • Serve warm with maple syrup, honey, fresh fruit, or chocolate chips!

Notes

  • For Extra Fluffiness: Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking to allow the baking powder to activate.
  • Dairy-Free Option: Swap milk with almond, oat, or coconut milk, and use vegetable oil instead of butter.
  • Make It Healthier: Use whole wheat flour or a mix of whole wheat and all-purpose flour for added fiber.
  • Crispy Edges: Cook pancakes in a lightly greased cast-iron skillet for a crispy texture.
  • Storage & Freezing: Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in a toaster or oven for the best texture.
