Here’s a simple way to make fluffy pancakes from scratch! 🥞
Ingredients (makes about 4–6 pancakes)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¾ cup milk (any kind)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp melted butter or oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- Butter or oil for the pan
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients
- In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix wet ingredients
- In another bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.
- Combine
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
- Stir gently until just combined — small lumps are okay. Don’t overmix!
- Cook the pancakes
- Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it.
- Pour ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set (~2–3 minutes).
- Flip and cook the other side until golden (~1–2 minutes).
- Serve
- Stack them up, add syrup, fruit, chocolate chips, or anything you like!
If you want, I can give a fun twist version, like chocolate chip, banana, or blueberry pancakes, that’s super easy to make.
