Hey, lovely people! How’s everybody doing? We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, right? And what better way to kickstart your mornings than with a stack of hearty, melt-in-your-mouth pancakes! Don’t worry, whipping up a batch is as easy as pie.

Alrighty, let’s roll up our sleeves and dive right into it!

Now, many folks might think cooking up pancakes from scratch is no walk in the park. Why mess around, they say, when there are a gazillion instant mixes on the supermarket shelf? But trust me, making pancakes is easier than falling off a log and a boatload healthier too!

You start off by brushing off the dust from your favorite mixing bowl. In there, fling in some flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir it up to mix everything nicely. Next, crack a fresh egg, pour in some cool milk, and whisk it all together till it looks like sunshine in a bowl. Easy as ABC, isn’t it?

Hot tip coming your way! Get your frying pan all fired up and give it a quick brush with butter or oil, just enough to make those pancakes skedaddle right out of the pan without sticking. Once you see those dreamy bubbles forming on top, get your spatula ready.

Now here comes the cherry on top, the pancake flip! Granted, it might feel like a cat on a hot tin roof the first time around, but practice makes perfect, doesn’t it? In no time, you’ll be flipping ’em like a pro.

Remember, the proof of the pancake is in the eating! So, whip out your top-drawer maple syrup or lashings of fresh fruits and tuck in. Just dig in and let those fluffy pillows of joy put a big fat smile on your face.

Have fun rustling up these fabulous pancakes and stay tuned for more quick, easy, and mouth-watering recipes! Cheers, folks!

Let’s Make It!

  • Gather all the necessary ingredients: 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, a pinch of salt, 2 tablespoons of sugar (optional), 1 egg, 3/4 to 1 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir until well mixed.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg gently.
  • Gradually add the milk to the beaten egg until it’s well combined.
  • Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the egg-milk mixture.
  • Stir gently until just combined. Be sure not to overmix as it will make the pancakes tough.
  • Toss in the melted butter and give the batter a quick whisk.
  • Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  • Brush a little bit of oil or butter on the heated skillet or griddle.
  • Pour approximately 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the heated surface for each pancake.
  • Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Flip the pancake over using a spatula and cook the other side until golden brown, another 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Transfer cooked pancake to a warm plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
  • Serve the pancakes hot with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, honey, syrup, or whipped cream.

That Was Quick!
