Easy Pancakes Recipe
Prep Time:
10 minutes
Cook Time:
20 minutes
Servings:
10 Pancakes
Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons neutral oil (canola, vegetable, etc), plus more for cooking
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
Directions
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a liquid measuring cup, measure out the milk, then add the egg, oil, and maple syrup. Whisk to break up the egg.
  3. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and slowly pour in the milk mixture. While pouring, use a rubber spatula to fold the 2 together until no large lumps of flour remain. Do not over-mix.
  4. Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium-low heat. Add some additional oil to lightly coat the bottom. Ladle batter into skillet to form pancakes (about ¼ cup per pancake). Make in batches (2 to 3 pancakes at a time) to avoid crowding the skillet.
  5. Cook pancakes until they start to look dry around the edges and bubbly on top, 2 to 3 minutes. At that point, flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
  6. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
  7. Serve immediately with desired toppings.
