Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 300 milliliters (10 fluid ounces) milk
- 2 large eggs
- 200 grams (7 ounces) all-purpose flour
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 pinch salt
Fats:
- 50 grams (1.8 ounces) melted butter
Instructions
- Blend dry ingredients in a spacious mixing vessel, ensuring even distribution of flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Create a central cavity in the dry mixture, allowing space for liquid components.
- Gently integrate milk, beaten eggs, and liquefied butter into the dry ingredients.
- Whisk mixture delicately from the center outwards, maintaining a slightly lumpy texture without overmixing.
- Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat (approximately 375°F) to ensure optimal pancake preparation.
- Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the heated surface, allowing natural bubbles to form across the pancake’s surface.
- When bubble formations become consistent and edges appear matte, carefully rotate the pancake using a thin spatula.
- Cook the reverse side for an additional 1-2 minutes until achieving a golden-brown complexion.
- Transfer completed pancakes to a warmed plate, maintaining temperature and preventing sogginess.
- Present immediately with preferred accompaniments such as maple syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream.
Notes
- Sift dry ingredients to eliminate lumps and ensure a smoother, more even pancake texture.
- Mix wet and dry ingredients minimally to prevent tough, dense pancakes; slight lumps are perfectly fine.
- Experiment with alternative flours like almond or gluten-free blends for different dietary needs and unique flavor profiles.
- Let batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking to allow flour to absorb liquid and create lighter, fluffier pancakes.
