Steps
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Ensure everything is well combined.
Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined and smooth.
Prepare Batter
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are fine. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Cook Pancakes
Heat a griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and bubbles appear on the surface. Flip and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes.
Serve
Serve the freshly cooked pancakes immediately, drizzled generously with maple syrup. You can also add fresh fruits or whipped cream if desired.
Extra Tips
► Don't overmix the batter; small lumps are perfectly fine and will result in fluffier pancakes.
► Use medium heat for cooking to ensure the pancakes cook evenly and turn a beautiful golden brown.
► To keep pancakes warm, place them in a preheated oven (around 80°C) while you finish cooking the rest.
