Fluffy Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1½ cups all-purpose flour

• 1 tablespoon sugar
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1¼ cups milk
• 1 large egg
• 3 tablespoons melted butter or oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

1. Mix dry ingredients
   • In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
2. Mix wet ingredients
   • In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.
3. Combine
   • Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients.
   • Gently stir just until combined — lumps are okay (overmixing = flat pancakes).
4. Cook
   • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease.
   • Pour about ¼ cup batter per pancake.
   • Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2 minutes).
   • Flip and cook 1–2 minutes until golden.
5. Serve
   • Serve warm with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Tips for Extra Fluffiness

• Do not overmix the batter
• Let batter rest 5–10 minutes before cooking
• Use fresh baking powder
• Cook on medium heat — not too hot

Variations

• Add blueberries or chocolate chips
• Swap milk for buttermilk for extra tenderness
• Fold in mashed banana or cinnamon for flavor

If you want, I can also give you a buttermilk fluffy pancake, Japanese-style fluffy pancakes, or protein pancake version.
