Fluffy and Delicious Homemade Pancakes - The Perfect Breakfast Recipe

Pancakes are a staple breakfast food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of toppings and fillings. Whether you prefer them plain or loaded with fruit, chocolate chips, or nuts, pancakes are a delicious way to start your day. In this post, we will be sharing a simple recipe for making pancakes at home, so you can enjoy a homemade breakfast without the hassle of going to a restaurant. Whether you're a beginner cook or an experienced chef, this recipe is perfect for anyone who wants to make pancakes from scratch.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Directions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then stir in the milk, melted butter and vanilla extract (if using).
3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined (the batter will be lumpy).
4. Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake.
5. Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side.
6. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
7. Serve your pancakes warm with butter and syrup, or your desired toppings.

Note: If you want to make fluffier pancakes, separate the egg yolks from the whites and beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the batter just before cooking.

You can also add your favorite ingredients to the batter like blueberries, chocolate chips or even grated apple to make your pancakes more delicious.

Enjoy your pancakes!
