A simple, foolproof recipe for classic, fluffy pancakes using common pantry ingredients. Perfect for a weekend breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk (or buttermilk)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when you see bubbles forming on the surface.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For buttermilk pancakes, substitute 1 1/2 cups of buttermilk for the regular milk.
  • If you don’t have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by mixing 1 1/2 tablespoons of lemon juice or white vinegar with 1 1/2 cups of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To freeze pancakes, let them cool completely, then wrap them individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. Reheat in the toaster or oven.
