Fluffy Pancake Recipe!

Fluffy Pancake Recipe (Perfect Every Time)

Ingredients

• 1½ cups all-purpose flour

• 3½ teaspoons baking powder

• 1 tablespoon sugar

• ½ teaspoon salt

• 1¼ cups milk (room temperature)

• 1 large egg (room temperature)

• 3 tablespoons melted butter (or oil)

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

1. Mix dry ingredients
   In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

2. Mix wet ingredients
   In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.

3. Combine gently
   Pour wet ingredients into dry. Stir just until combined.
   ✔ Lumpy batter = fluffy pancakes
   ✘ Overmixing = flat pancakes

4. Rest the batter
   Let it sit for 5–10 minutes. This makes a huge difference.

5. Cook
   Heat a lightly greased pan or griddle over medium-low heat.
   Pour about ¼ cup batter per pancake.

6. Flip
   When bubbles form on top and edges look set (2–3 min), flip.
   Cook another 1–2 minutes until golden.

7. Serve hot
   Butter, syrup, fruit, whipped cream—your call.
