Ingredients
Scale
Dairy and Wet Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Cooking Ingredient:
- Extra unsalted butter for cooking
Instructions
- Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a spacious mixing vessel, ensuring uniform distribution of dry components.
- Crack egg into a separate container, then introduce milk, liquefied butter, and aromatic vanilla extract. Whisk until thoroughly integrated.
- Create batter by gradually incorporating liquid mixture into dry ingredients. Stir gently with minimal agitation, allowing slight textural irregularities to remain.
- Prepare cooking surface by heating non-stick skillet or griddle to medium temperature (approximately 350°F). Apply thin layer of butter to prevent adherence.
- Ladle approximately 1/4 cup batter onto heated surface for each pancake. Monitor cooking process: wait until surface develops small bubbles and edges appear matte (2-3 minutes).
- Execute precise flip, allowing opposite side to caramelize to golden-brown perfection within 1-2 minutes.
- Transfer fluffy pancakes to serving plate. Enhance with maple syrup, dollop of butter, scattered fresh berries, cloud-like whipped cream, or delicate powdered sugar sprinkle.
Notes
- Prevent tough pancakes by mixing the batter minimally, leaving small lumps to create a tender texture.
- Ensure consistent pancake thickness by using a measuring cup or ladle for uniform batter portioning.
- Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking to allow flour to absorb liquid and create fluffier pancakes.
- Customize the recipe by substituting part of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat or gluten-free alternatives for different dietary needs.
