Pancake
Making homemade pancakes is a simple and rewarding process. Here's a classic recipe for fluffy pancakes:
### Homemade Pancake Recipe
#### Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
#### Instructions:
1. **Prepare the Dry Ingredients:**
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. **Prepare the Wet Ingredients:**
- In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).
3. **Combine the Ingredients:**
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
4. **Heat the Pan:**
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
5. **Cook the Pancakes:**
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
6. **Serve:**
- Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream, or butter.
### Tips:
- **For Extra Fluffy Pancakes:** Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking.
- **Add-Ins:** You can add chocolate chips, blueberries, or sliced bananas to the batter before cooking for added flavor.
Enjoy your homemade pancakes!
