Griddle Cakes Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Melt the butter and let it cool slightly before adding it to the wet mixture.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; the batter may be slightly lumpy.

  4. 4

    Preheat Griddle

    Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a little butter to coat the surface.

  5. 5

    Cook the Cakes

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the griddle and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining batter. Serve with syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.
