Hot Cakes Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, mix the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  3. 3

    Mix Together

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Heat the Griddle

    Preheat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.

  5. 5

    Cook the Hot Cakes

    Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each hot cake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruits, or whipped cream.
