Fluffy Pancakes
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| All-purpose flour | 1 1/2 cups |
| Baking powder | 3 1/2 teaspoons |
| Granulated sugar | 1 tablespoon |
| Salt | 1/4 teaspoon |
| Whole milk | 1 1/4 cups |
| Egg | 1 large |
| Unsalted butter, melted | 3 tablespoons |
| Pure vanilla extract | 1 teaspoon |
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to create a smooth, airy base for your pancakes.
- In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, and vanilla until smooth. Gradually mix in melted butter to enrich the batter.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined; some lumps are okay.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook 2–3 minutes until bubbles form and edges set, then flip and cook 1–2 minutes until golden.
- Repeat with remaining batter, greasing skillet as needed. Keep pancakes warm under a towel.
- Serve stacked with butter and maple syrup, adding berries, banana slices, whipped cream, or chocolate spread for extra indulgence.
