Pancakes from Scratch
Description
The Pancakes from Scratch recipe combines flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar before adding wet ingredients like milk, beaten egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. The batter is mixed just until combined to retain some lumps, which helps avoid dense pancakes. Cooking on a medium-heated griddle or nonstick pan forms one side golden brown with bubbles signaling readiness to flip. The second side cooks quickly to finish with a lightly browned finish. Serving traditionally involves butter and maple syrup.
This straightforward recipe relies on simple techniques and ingredients to produce tender homemade pancakes. Cooking cues like bubble formation and color guide timing. The result is a classic breakfast item adaptable for various toppings or add-ins if desired.
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 egg well beaten
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Heat your griddle or non-stick pan to medium heat.
- While griddle is heating, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Add in milk, egg, butter and vanilla and whisk just until the batter is combined; loose, but still thick and lumpy.
- Using a 1/4 cup measure, pour batter onto griddle and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the underside is golden brown and the top part is full of bubbles and more dry looking than wet.
- Flip the pancake with a spatula and cook for another minute.
- Serve with butter and maple syrup.
