Old-Fashioned Pancakes

🍳 Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients:
    In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients:
    In another bowl, beat the egg with the milk and melted butter.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry:
    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—don’t overmix. Some lumps are okay.
  4. Heat Pan:
    Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
  5. Cook Pancakes:
    Pour 1/4 cup batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set (~2–3 minutes). Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden.
  6. Serve:
    Serve warm with butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.

💡 Tips:

  • For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes before cooking.
  • Add vanilla extract (1 tsp) or a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
  • Keep pancakes warm in a low oven (200°F / 90°C) while cooking the rest.

If you want, I can also give you a quick 5-minute version that’s just as tasty but super fast to make! Do you want me to do that?
