Hot Cakes Recipe

Hot Cakes Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Batter

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

2. 2

   Mix Wet Ingredients

   In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.

3. 3

   Combine Ingredients

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

4. 4

   Heat the Pan

   In a skillet or griddle, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. You can also use a non-stick surface without oil.

5. 5

   Cook the Hot Cakes

   For each hot cake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. 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

   Remove the hot cakes from the skillet and serve warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, butter, or fresh fruit.
