Ingredients

Units Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Combine wet and dry: Create a well in the center of your dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Use a spatula to mix until JUST combined (there should still be plenty of lumps). Be careful not to overmix, otherwise the pancakes will not be as fluffy.
  4. Cook pancakes: Heat a greased skillet over medium heat. Pour ¼ cup of batter into the skillet and cook for 2 minutes until the edges look dry and bubbles start forming on top. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Serve: Served with maple syrup, whipped cream, and strawberry sauce (see notes on how to make)!

Notes

  • Serve pancakes with maple syrup, whipped cream, and strawberry sauce for best flavor.
