Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for handcrafted pancakes:
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Butter or oil for cooking
- Optional toppings: maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate chips, nuts, etc.
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then stir in the milk and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps in the batter are okay.
- Heat a lightly greased skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Once the skillet is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges start to look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
- Serve the handcrafted pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate chips, or nuts.
- Enjoy your delicious handcrafted pancakes as a delightful breakfast or brunch treat!
