An easy, fluffy pancake recipe perfect for kids to make and enjoy. This recipe uses simple pantry staples and yields a light, airy stack that everyone loves.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (190g)
  • 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 ¼ cups milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus extra for the pan)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Gather and measure all ingredients (5 minutes).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined; batter should be thick but pourable with some lumps.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly butter the surface. Test heat with a small drop of batter.
  6. Use a ¼ cup ladle to pour batter onto skillet. Cook until bubbles form on surface and edges look set, about 2–3 minutes.
  7. Flip pancakes carefully and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden and springy to touch.
  8. Stack pancakes on a plate, add butter, syrup, fresh berries, or desired toppings, and serve warm.

Notes

[‘Do not overmix the batter; lumps are okay to keep pancakes fluffy.’, ‘Let the batter rest 5-10 minutes if possible to improve fluffiness.’, ‘Use fresh baking powder for best rise.’, ‘Cook pancakes on medium heat to avoid burning outside while raw inside.’, ‘Lightly butter the pan between batches to prevent sticking without greasiness.’, ‘If batter thickens too much while cooking, stir in a splash of milk before continuing.’]
