Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1.25 cups milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Medium bowl
  • Whisk
  • Griddle or non-stick pan

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.
Cooking
  1. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined; a few lumps are okay.
  2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat.
  3. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot griddle.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through, flipping only once when bubbles appear on the surface.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter; lumps are desirable for fluffy pancakes. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
