Super Soft Egg & Milk Vanilla Pancakes

INGREDIENTS:

For the Pancakes

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

2 tbsp granulated sugar

2 tsp baking powder

¼ tsp salt

1 large egg

1 ¼ cups milk (whole milk for extra richness)

2 tbsp melted butter (or oil)

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Optional Add-Ins

1 tsp cinnamon (for warmth)

Zest of 1 lemon (for brightness)

For Serving

Maple syrup

Fresh berries

Whipped cream

DIRECTIONS:

1. Mix Dry & Wet Ingredients Separately

In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl, beat egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla.

🔥 Pro Tip: Let the batter rest 5 mins for fluffier pancakes!

2. Combine Gently (Don’t Overmix!)

Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients.

Stir until just combined (a few lumps are okay—overmixing = tough pancakes!).

3. Cook to Golden Perfection

Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium-low heat (too hot = burnt outsides, raw insides!).

Pour ¼ cup batter per pancake.

Cook until bubbles form on top (about 2-3 mins), then flip and cook 1-2 mins more.

🍳 Chef’s Secret: For extra fluffiness, cover the pan with a lid while cooking!

4. Stack, Top & Devour!

Serve warm with maple syrup, berries, and whipped cream.
