Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large egg
- 1 ¾ cups (415 ml) milk
- 4 tbsps (60 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups (480 ml) all-purpose flour
- 4 tbsps (60 g) granulated sugar
- 4 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Dry Mixture Preparation: Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl, ensuring a uniform blend without any lumps.
- Liquid Integration: Form a central well in the dry ingredients, then introduce milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and whisked egg into the crater.
- Batter Harmonization: Whisk ingredients with sweeping motions, creating a velvety batter that maintains a slightly textured consistency. Adjust thickness by adding milk if needed.
- Surface Preparation: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low temperature, lightly greasing with butter to prevent sticking.
- Pancake Crafting: Pour batter onto the heated surface, guiding it into a circular shape. Allow pancake to develop bubbles across the surface and golden-brown edges.
- Precision Flipping: Confidently turn the pancake using a spatula, cooking until both sides achieve a rich, amber coloration.
- Serving Artistry: Repeat the cooking process with remaining batter, stacking the golden pancakes. Embellish with maple syrup, honey, or a vibrant array of fresh fruits for a delectable finale.
Notes
- Flour Fusion Technique: Sift dry ingredients thoroughly to eliminate clumps and ensure a smooth, even pancake texture.
- Liquid Integration Strategy: Create a well in the center of dry ingredients to help liquids blend seamlessly without overmixing.
- Batter Consistency Check: Add milk incrementally if batter seems too thick, aiming for a pourable yet slightly thick consistency.
- Perfect Cooking Surface: Use low to medium heat with a light butter coating to prevent burning and achieve golden-brown pancakes.
