Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
Wet Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups milk
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Gather Ingredients: Collect all the ingredients listed to ensure a smooth cooking process.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to ensure they are well combined and to avoid lumps.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Create a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour in the milk, melted butter, and egg. Mix everything together until the batter becomes smooth and homogeneous.
- Heat the Griddle: Preheat a lightly oiled griddle or skillet over medium-high heat to prepare for cooking the pancakes.
- Cook Pancakes: Pour or scoop about ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look dry, approximately 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip Pancakes: Carefully turn each pancake over and cook the other side until it is golden brown. Repeat until the batter is used up.
- Serve: Plate the pancakes and serve immediately with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
Notes
- Salt can be adjusted to taste; the original recipe suggests 1 teaspoon, but ¼ teaspoon is recommended based on feedback.
- Cook pancakes on medium-high heat to achieve a golden-brown finish without burning.
- Use melted butter for a richer flavor and tender texture.
- For fluffier pancakes, avoid overmixing the batter once wet and dry ingredients are combined.
