Pancake Batter and Topping

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Skillet

    In a medium skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly in the skillet. Arrange pineapple rings on top of the sugar and place a maraschino cherry in the center of each ring. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the sugar is bubbly.

  2. 2

    Make the Pancake Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In another bowl, mix milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed.

  3. 3

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour pancake batter over the pineapple rings in the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 3-4 minutes), then carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Once cooked, carefully flip the pancakes onto plates, pineapple side up. Serve warm and enjoy!
