Ingredients
Scale
1 cup all-purpose flour – for a gluten-free option, consider using almond or coconut flour.
2 tablespoons granulated sugar – you can replace this with maple syrup or honey for a natural sweetness.
2 teaspoons baking powder – make sure it’s fresh for the best rise.
1/2 teaspoon baking soda – essential for that fluffy texture.
1/4 teaspoon salt – to enhance the flavors.
1 large egg – a vegan alternative is a flaxseed egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 2.5 tablespoons water).
1 cup milk – opt for dairy-free almond or oat milk if preferred.
2 tablespoons melted butter or oil – coconut oil works beautifully here for a tropical twist.
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until they are well blended, creating a uniform mixture that will ensure even rising.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then add the milk and melted butter. Stir these ingredients together gently until they are just combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep your pancakes light and fluffy.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Use a spatula to gently fold the mixture together. A few lumps are perfectly fine; over-mixing can create tough pancakes.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter or oil to coat the surface. You’ll know it’s ready when a drop of water sizzles and dances on the surface.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, usually around 2-3 minutes. Flip them over and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Transfer the pancakes to a warm plate and repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter. Stack them high, and don’t forget to add your favorite toppings!
