Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3.5 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1.25 cup milk
  • 1 egg Ā· large
  • 3 tbsp butter Ā· melted and slightly cooled

Directions

  1. 1

    Whisk dry ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.

  2. 2

    Mix wet ingredients

    In a separate medium bowl, whisk the milk, egg, and melted butter together until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine batters

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; do not overmix, as a few lumps are perfectly fine.

  4. 4

    Cook the pancakes

    Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour about one-quarter cup of batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about two to three minutes.

    Flip and finish

    Flip the pancakes and cook the other side until golden brown, about one to two minutes more. Serve immediately with butter and maple syrup.
