Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk dairy or non-dairy
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted (or a plant-based alternative)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana for natural sweetness
Instructions
Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. This will ensure that the baking powder is evenly distributed, giving your pancakes a light and fluffy texture.
Mix the Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. If you're using applesauce or mashed banana, add it to this mixture for a touch of natural sweetness.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to dense pancakes. The batter should be a bit lumpy.
Heat the Pan:
- Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of butter or oil. Allow it to heat up for a minute or two.
Cook the Pancakes:
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook until the other side is golden brown, another 1-2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve your pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of pure maple syrup.
