Pancake Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 3 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions
Pancake Preparation
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the wet ingredients: egg, milk, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined; embrace a lumpy batter for fluffier pancakes.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat.
Cooking the Pancakes
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot griddle.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles appear on the surface (First Flip).
- Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown (Second Flip).
- Flip once more for an even golden color on both sides and to ensure thorough cooking (Third Flip).
Serving
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream.
Notes
Do not overmix the batter; lumps are good for fluffy pancakes! Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
