how to make pancakes?
Here is a basic recipe for making pancakes:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then add milk, melted butter or oil, and vanilla extract (if using) and whisk together.
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined (small lumps are okay).
- Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
- Once the skillet is hot, ladle about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet.
- Cook the pancake for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges start to look dry.
- Serve pancakes with syrup, butter, or any desired toppings.
Note: you can use any type of milk, and add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for added flavor. Also, you can use different flours like whole wheat, oat, almond flour, etc. Enjoy your pancakes!
