Pancake Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Batter

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

2

Mix Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Melt the butter and add it to the wet mixture.

3

Combine Mixtures

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

4

Heat the Pan

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a little butter if necessary.

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. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

6

Serve

Serve warm with organic maple syrup drizzled on top.
