kcalIngredients
195 g all-purpose flour
30 g sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
295 ml milk
1 egg
70 g unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions
- Melt the butter and set it aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Create a well in the center of your dry ingredients. Pour in the milk mixture and stir gently with a fork until the flour is just incorporated. A few small lumps are okay. As the batter sits, it should start to bubble.
- Place a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Sprinkle in a few drops of water to test if it’s ready. You want them to dance around a bit and evaporate.
- Brush the skillet with melted butter. Scoop the batter onto the skillet using a 1/4 cup measure or large cookie scoop, and spread each pancake into a 4-inch circle.
- After 1 to 2 minutes, the edges will look dry, and bubbles will form and pop on the surface. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until lightly browned and cooked in the middle.
- Serve immediately with warm syrup, butter, and berries.
Notes
- For the fluffiest pancakes, avoid over-mixing the batter. A few lumps are totally fine!
- Additionally, make sure your griddle or pan is preheated properly before you start cooking. If you’re feeling adventurous, try adding chocolate chips, berries, or a dash of vanilla for a custom twist.
