Units
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients:
- Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl.

- Preheat Skillet:
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray.
- Cook the Pancakes:
- Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form around the edges and center of the pancake.
- Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes, until golden brown.
- Serve:
- Serve warm with syrup, butter, fruit, or any of your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Resting the Batter: Allowing the batter to rest helps the baking powder activate, creating extra fluffy pancakes.
- Custom Toppings: Add chocolate chips, blueberries, or chopped nuts to the batter for a fun twist.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the microwave or toaster.
