Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk (any type)
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp oil (vegetable or canola oil)
Instructions
- Prepare the Pancake Mix: In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined. You can store any leftover pancake mix in an airtight container for future use.
- Add the Liquid Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and oil. Add 1 cup of the prepared pancake mix to the wet ingredients and stir until smooth. Adjust the batter’s consistency by adding more milk if it’s too thick or additional pancake mix if it’s too thin.
- Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly butter the surface. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges become set, approximately 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until they turn golden brown.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the pancakes warm topped with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings for a delightful breakfast.
Notes
- For fluffier pancakes, ensure your baking powder is fresh and active.
- You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk for a dairy-free version.
- Adjust sweetness by increasing or decreasing sugar according to taste.
- Use a non-stick pan or well-seasoned griddle for best cooking results.
- Leftover pancakes can be refrigerated or frozen and reheated in a toaster or microwave.
