Nothing beats a stack of warm, fluffy pancakes to start your day. This simple recipe makes best pancakes that are soft, airy, and irresistibly delicious.


Stack of pancakes on a white plate topped with melting butter and syrup. Knife and fork on the plate.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour

3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1 1/4 cups (300ml) milk

1 egg

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional but recommended)


Instructions:

Prepare the Batter

Mix dry ingredients:

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Combine wet ingredients:

In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Combine wet and dry:

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; lumps are okay! Overmixing can make the pancakes dense instead of fluffy.


Cook the Pancakes

Heat up the pan:

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a small amount of butter or oil.


Scoop the batter:

Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup or ladle to pour the batter onto the hot skillet. Do not spread the batter; it will naturally spread into a circle.


Cook until bubbles form:

Cook the pancake for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.


Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan lightly as needed.


Serve and Enjoy

Stack the pancakes high, top them with your favorite add-ons (butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, fresh fruits, or powdered sugar), and serve immediately to enjoy their fluffy goodness.
