Equipment
- mixing bowls
- whisk or fork
- Non-stick frying pan or griddle
- Ladle or measuring cup
- Spatula or flipper
- Plate or platter
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp White sugar
- 2 tbsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 Egg, beaten
Notes
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, white sugar, baking powder, and salt. Use a whisk or a fork to ensure the dry ingredients are well combined and evenly distributed.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, beaten egg, and vegetable oil until they form a smooth and uniform mixture.
3. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it.
4. Gently stir the ingredients together, being careful not to overmix. A few lumps in the batter are perfectly fine; they'll dissolve during cooking.
5. Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat. You can lightly grease the pan with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
6. Using a ladle or a measuring cup, pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Leave some space between them to allow for spreading.
7. Cook the pancakes for 1-2 minutes on the first side until bubbles start to form on the surface. This is an indication that they are ready to be flipped.
8. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side until they become golden brown and fluffy.
9. Once cooked, transfer the pancakes to a plate and keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter. You can cover them with a clean kitchen towel or keep them in a slightly warmed oven.
10. Serve your delicious pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, honey, fresh fruits, chocolate chips, or whipped cream. The options are endless!
And there you have it! A simple yet scrumptious pancake recipe that will surely be a hit at breakfast or brunch. Enjoy your culinary journey, and don't hesitate to experiment with different toppings and flavors to make these pancakes uniquely yours. Happy cooking!
