Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups (190 grams) all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons (17.5 milliliters) baking powder
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/4 cups (300 milliliters) milk (dairy or non-dairy)
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 tablespoon (15 grams) sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) vanilla extract
Seasoning and Cooking Components:
- 1/4 teaspoon (1.25 grams) salt
- 3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) melted butter (plus more for the pan)
Instructions
- Gather all dry ingredients in a spacious mixing vessel, thoroughly blending flour, leavening agent, mineral seasoning, and sweetener until perfectly integrated.
- In a separate container, whisk together dairy liquid, farm-fresh egg, liquefied butter, and aromatic vanilla until smoothly combined.
- Create the batter by gently introducing wet mixture into dry components, stirring with minimal agitation—embrace the textural imperfections that signal a tender pancake.
- Allow the mixture to relax and develop complexity for 5-10 minutes, enabling flour proteins to hydrate and leavening agents to activate.
- Warm a non-adhesive cooking surface over moderate heat, lightly coating with butter to prevent sticking and enhance golden caramelization.
- Carefully ladle batter onto the heated surface, creating circular forms that will transform into delicate pillows of flavor.
- Monitor cooking progress by observing bubble formation across the pancake’s surface—this indicates the optimal moment for gentle flipping.
- Execute a precise turn, revealing a sun-kissed golden landscape and cooking the reverse side until achieving a uniform, appetizing hue.
- Transfer the completed pancakes to a waiting plate, stacking with artistic flair and adorning with your preferred embellishments like maple nectar, vibrant seasonal fruits, or a delicate snowfall of confectioner’s sugar.
Notes
- Let batter rest at room temperature to help ingredients meld and create smoother texture.
- Minimal mixing prevents tough pancakes; small lumps in batter ensure tender, fluffy results.
- Use room temperature eggs and milk for better ingredient integration and consistent batter.
- Customize recipe by swapping all-purpose flour with whole wheat, gluten-free, or almond flour for dietary needs.
