Easy Fluffy Pancakes Morning Reset (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 ¼ cups (295ml) milk, can be dairy or plant-based.
02 -
1 large egg.
03 -
2 tablespoons sugar.
04 -
1 ½ cups (195g) plain flour, measure carefully.
05 -
2 teaspoons vanilla essence.
06 -
1 tablespoon baking powder.
07 -
5 tablespoons (70g) unsalted butter, plus extra for cooking the pancakes.
08 -
1/2 teaspoon finely granulated sea salt or table salt.
# Instructions:
01 -
Heat up the butter until melted, then let it cool for a little bit.
02 -
Grab a medium-sized bowl, and mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
03 -
In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla with a whisk.
04 -
In the bowl with the dry stuff, make a little well in the middle. Pour the wet mixture into that well and mix gently with a fork till just blended. A few tiny lumps are okay.
05 -
Warm up a large frying pan or flat griddle over medium heat. To see if it's hot enough, throw on a few water drops—they should sizzle and disappear quickly.
06 -
Brush on some melted butter if you like crispy edges, or skip this if your pan’s non-stick.
07 -
Using a 1/4-cup measuring scoop, pour some batter into the pan, spreading it out to make a 4-inch round shape.
08 -
Cook the batter for about 1-2 minutes—watch for edges that dry up and bubbles forming on top. Flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown all over.
09 -
Dish them up right away with syrup, a pat of butter, or fresh berries.
# Notes:
01 -
Keep leftover pancakes in a sealed container for up to a week in the fridge or freeze them for two months.
02 -
To warm them back up: pop one in the microwave for 20 seconds, or wrap a batch in foil and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 10 minutes.
03 -
For measuring flour, fluff it up first, scoop into your measuring cup, then scrape the top with a knife to level.
04 -
Go for aluminum-free baking powder, such as 'Alsa' available in France, so there's no metallic taste.
05 -
Mix things up! Toss in some nuts, chocolate pieces, or berries to make them fun.
