Dry Ingredients

For Serving

Method

Prepare the Batter

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

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

Cook the Pancakes

  1. 4

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can lightly grease it with a bit of butter if desired.

  2. 5

    Pour the Batter

    Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake.

  3. 6

    Cook the Pancakes

    Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  4. 7

    Repeat

    Repeat the process with the remaining batter, keeping the cooked pancakes warm in a low oven if desired.

Serve the Pancakes

  1. 8

    Plate and Add Toppings

    Stack the pancakes on plates and drizzle with maple syrup. Add fresh berries if using.

  2. 9

    Enjoy

    Serve warm and enjoy your fluffy pancakes!
