Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 ¼ cups milk
- 1 egg
- 3 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions:
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the egg, then mix in milk, melted butter, and vanilla.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry, stirring gently until just combined (don’t overmix!).
- Heat a lightly greased pan or griddle over medium heat.
- Pour about ¼ cup batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top, then flip and cook until golden brown.
- Serve warm with butter and syrup.
Note: For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes before cooking. Avoid overmixing to keep them light and airy. You can also substitute buttermilk for regular milk for an even richer texture!
Enjoy fluffy, homemade pancakes! 🥞✨
