  • 🥄 2 tbsp sugar
  • 🧂 1 tsp salt
  • 🥄 4 tsp baking powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 🥛 1¾ cups (420ml) milk
  • 🥚 2 large eggs
  • 🧈 ¼ cup (60g) melted unsalted butter
  • 🌼 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

For Cooking

  • 🍓 Strawberries
  • 🍌 Banana slices
  • 🫐 Blueberries
  • 🧈 Butter
  • 🍫 Chocolate chips
  • 🍯 Honey

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together:

  • Flour
  • Sugar
  • Salt
  • Baking powder

Mix until evenly combined.

2️⃣ Mix the Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together:

  • Milk
  • Eggs
  • Melted butter
  • Vanilla extract

Whisk until smooth.

3️⃣ Make the Batter

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.

Gently fold everything together with a spatula until just combined.

✅ The batter should be thick. ❌ Don’t overmix—a few lumps are perfectly fine.

Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes to help create extra fluffy pancakes.

4️⃣ Heat the Pan

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.

Lightly grease with butter.

5️⃣ Cook the Pancakes

Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.

Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles appear on top and the edges begin to set.

Flip carefully.

Cook another 2–3 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked inside.

Repeat with the remaining batter.

💡 Tips for Extra Fluffy Pancakes

✨ Don’t overmix the batter. ✨ Let the batter rest before cooking. ✨ Cook on medium-low heat so the inside cooks without burning the outside. ✨ Flip only once. ✨ Use fresh baking powder for maximum rise.
