Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 ½ tablespoon neutral cooking oil or melted butter, generic cooking oil
- 1 egg
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preparing the batter
- Shift the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
- Whisk together milk, egg, sugar, oil, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until blended.
- Gently pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients bowl.
- Use a spatula to fold and mix the batter until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Cooking the pancakes
- Preheat a non-stick skillet, electric or stovetop griddle over medium flame.
- Grease the skillet lightly with oil or butter and use a paper towel to spread it evenly.
- Pour a ladleful ( or use ¼ cup measuring cup) of batter into the skillet and cook until bubbles form on the pancake's surface and the edges appear slightly set.
- Carefully flip the pancake and cook for another minute or until golden brown.
- Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serving
- Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm with butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, and any desired toppings.
Notes
- Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature.
- Don't overmix the batter. A few lumps are fine. Overmixing can lead to chewy pancakes.
- Let the batter rest for a few minutes to allow the baking powder to activate.
- Ensure your baking powder is still active by mixing ½ teaspoon with ¼ cup boiling water. If the mixture begins to bubble, your baking powder is good to use.
- Use a non-stick skillet or well-seasoned griddle, and make sure the skillet is hot enough.
- Lightly grease the cooking surface with oil, cooking spray, or butter and use a paper towel to spread it uniformly.
- Use a ladle or cup to pour the batter onto the cooking surface. This helps to keep the pancake sizes consistent.
- Don’t flip the pancakes until they are almost cooked through so they don’t fall apart.
- Don’t overcook the pancakes, or they will be dry!
- Allow the pancakes to come to room temperature before placing them in the fridge or freezer.
