Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. Some lumps are fine.

  4. 4

    Heat the Griddle

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray if necessary.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.

Protein Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook Bacon or Sausage

    If using bacon, cook the slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. If using sausage links, cook them in the skillet until browned and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
