Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups (190 grams) all-purpose flour
- 2.5 teaspoons (12 grams) baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon (3 grams) salt
- 1 tablespoon (12 grams) sugar
Wet Ingredients:
- 1.25 cups (296 milliliters) milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) butter, melted
Flavor Enhancer:
- 2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Blend dry ingredients—flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar—through a fine-mesh sieve into a spacious mixing vessel, ensuring smooth, lump-free mixture.
- Craft a central depression in the powdery landscape, then cascade milk, cracked egg, liquefied butter, and aromatic vanilla extract into the hollow.
- Puncture the egg’s golden center with a fork, then tenderly merge ingredients using sweeping circular motions, maintaining a delicate touch to preserve potential textural irregularities.
- Activate a non-stick cooking surface over medium-high thermal intensity, targeting 300-350°F for optimal pancake emergence.
- Anoint the heated terrain with a whisper-thin butter coating or culinary lubricant spray to prevent adhesion.
- Dispense batter in precise quarter-cup dollops, allowing each pancake generous personal space on the cooking plane.
- Monitor for telltale bubble formations and slightly hardened perimeter—approximately two minutes—signaling readiness for transformation.
- Execute a graceful single-motion flip, allowing an additional minute of golden caramelization without compressing the delicate structure.
- Migrate completed pancakes to a temperature-conserving platform, maintaining their pristine warmth and ethereal texture.
- Elevate the culinary experience by adorning your golden stacks with decadent embellishments: maple nectar, creamy butter, vibrant fruit medley, or indulgent chocolate morsels.
Notes
- Prevent Overmixing: Gently combine ingredients to maintain air pockets, ensuring pancakes remain light and fluffy during cooking.
- Temperature Control: Use medium-high heat to achieve golden-brown exterior without burning, allowing even cooking throughout the pancake.
- Batter Consistency: Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking to help flour absorb liquid and create softer texture.
- Dietary Adaptations: Swap all-purpose flour with gluten-free blend or whole wheat flour for alternative nutritional profiles and dietary needs.
