 Fluffy Homemade Pancakes Recipe

Ingredients (for about 10 pancakes)

  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk (whole or any preferred)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter (plus more for cooking)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

1. Mix Dry Ingredients

  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

2. Mix Wet Ingredients

  • In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.

3. Combine Batter

  • Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients.
  • Stir gently until just combined — batter should be a little lumpy (don’t overmix or pancakes will be dense).

4. Cook the Pancakes

  1. Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
  2. Pour about ¼ cup batter for each pancake.
  3. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set (about 2 minutes).
  4. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.

5. Serve

  • Stack pancakes on a plate.
  • Serve warm with maple syrup, honey, fresh fruit, or a pat of butter.

Tips & Variations

  • Extra Fluffy: Separate the egg, beat the white until stiff peaks form, then fold it into the batter.
  • Buttermilk Pancakes: Replace milk with buttermilk for a tangy, fluffier result.
  • Add-ins: Mix in blueberries, chocolate chips, or banana slices.
  • Savory Option: Skip sugar & vanilla, then add cheese, herbs, or cooked bacon bits.
