A step-by-step process of preparing pancake batter and cooking it on a hot griddle.

Instructions:

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients : In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Prepare Wet Ingredients : In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Combine : Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; lumps are okay.
  4. Heat the Pan : Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
  5. Cook the Pancakes : Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. Cook for about 2 minutes until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Serve : Stack the pancakes, drizzle with maple syrup, and enjoy!

Tips for Perfect Pancakes:

For the fluffiest pancakes, avoid overmixing the batter—small lumps are perfectly fine and help keep them light. Letting the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking allows the ingredients to blend and results in a better texture. Use a non-stick pan or griddle heated to medium and lightly greased with butter to prevent sticking. Flip the pancakes when bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture!
