Pancake Batter

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

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

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Mix the Batter

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

  4. 4

    Heat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a bit of butter or oil.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
