Preparation Time

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 15 minutes
  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Servings: 4 (8–10 pancakes)

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1¾ cups (420ml) whole milk
  • ¼ cup (60g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Cooking

  • Butter or cooking spray

Optional Toppings

  • Maple syrup
  • Butter
  • Fresh strawberries
  • Blueberries
  • Bananas
  • Whipped cream
  • Powdered sugar

Instructions

Step 1: Mix the Dry Ingredients

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

Step 2: Combine the Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3: Make the Batter

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter should remain slightly lumpy. Avoid overmixing, as this keeps the pancakes tender and fluffy.

Step 4: Rest the Batter

Allow the batter to rest for 5 minutes. This helps activate the leavening agents and creates extra fluffy pancakes.

Step 5: Heat the Pan

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

Step 6: Cook the Pancakes

Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set. Flip carefully and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 7: Serve

Stack the warm pancakes on a plate and top with butter, maple syrup, fresh berries, sliced bananas, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.

Tips

  • Do not overmix the batter—small lumps are perfectly fine.
  • Letting the batter rest for a few minutes makes the pancakes even fluffier.
  • Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while making the remaining batch.
  • Add chocolate chips or blueberries directly to the batter for delicious variations.

Storage

  • Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Freeze pancakes with parchment paper between each layer for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat in the microwave, toaster, or oven until warm.
