Best Fluffy Pancakes Recipe

INGREDENT

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 3 ½ tsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp granulated sugar
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 ¼ cups milk
• 1 egg
• 3 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional, for added flavor)

Instructions

1. Mix Dry Ingredients:
   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
2. Add Wet Ingredients:
   In another bowl or measuring jug, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).
3. Combine & Mix:
   Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined — the batter should be slightly lumpy. Do not overmix!
4. Preheat & Grease Pan:
   Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
5. Cook Pancakes:
   Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set (about 2-3 minutes). Flip and cook another 1-2 minutes or until golden brown and fluffy.
6. Serve Warm:
   Serve stacked with butter, maple syrup, fruit, or your favorite toppings.
