Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
Tip: Sifting the dry ingredients ensures a lighter texture.
Step 2: Combine the Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until smooth.
Step 3: Make the Batter
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined.
Important: Do not overmix! The batter should still have a few lumps—this helps keep the pancakes fluffy.
Step 4: Rest the Batter
Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes. This allows the baking powder to activate and the flour to hydrate, resulting in fluffier pancakes.
Step 5: Cook the Pancakes
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Use a ¼-cup measuring cup to scoop the batter onto the skillet, leaving space between each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set (about 2–3 minutes). Flip carefully and cook for another 1–2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Tip: Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning while ensuring the pancakes cook through.
Step 6: Serve
Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm with your favorite toppings.
Popular options include maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream, chocolate chips, or a pat of butter.
