Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 Large egg
  • 2 tablespoons Melted butter plus extra for cooking

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Medium bowl
  • Whisk
  • Griddle or frying pan

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.
Cooking
  1. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined; do not overmix, as lumps are okay.
  2. Heat a lightly buttered griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  3. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot griddle.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serving
  1. Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
